Can anyone help, how to find all available startup options in XBMC?

'xbmc --help' doesn't works.

In Windows the only options are -p to set portable mode and -d n to delay n seconds before starting. There may be others for Linux/OSX builds; I'd have to look at the source to be sure.

I'm Linux user, so I'm looking for options for Linux XMBC port.

Currently I use this command in my .xinitrc:

exec /usr/bin/xbmc --standalone -fs

Knowing all available options could be useful.

See https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/master...Parser.cpp

This is trunk code, so some of the parameters are not in v10.1. To find out what the command line parameters are in Dharma switch to the Dharma branch and look in xbmc\xbmc.cpp.

Thanks Smile

Just to say that this code :
else if (arg == "-h" || arg == "--help")
DisplayHelp();

must call DisplayHelp if I use 'xbmc --help', but it doesn't work for me. May be because of trunk code.
