FDM.exe Command Line 45x35

[DigitalPhoenixX]

Does anyone know how does the command line for FDM.exe works?
For example: if I try running "fdm URL" in the command line it will open up FDM and try to the file in the URL
and I also noticed if I use a "-" what's after it is ignored (the parameters are parsed after the "-" unlike normal windows "/")
So I tried the following
fdm -h
fdm --help
fdm -?
help fdm
None of which gave me the documentation for what options I have when running fdm.exe from the command line

Anyway, I want to specify multiple URLs to be ed in a folder with a given name in a given location is that possible using the command line?

If it was even available, it would be unpractical.

* Max URL length isn't specified in HTTP standard, but web browsers use limit about 2048 characters.

* On computers running Microsoft Windows XP or later, the maximum length of the string that you can use at the command prompt is 8191 characters. Long local path can be up to 1024 characters.

So in the worst case you could only two URLs and local paths in command line.

If you want to implement such a feature, you should keep parameters in some XML-like file, similar to metalink.

You can also learn how it's done in wget, well known command line er.

Hello,
Currently, FDM6 does not much arguments.
--url URL - add a with the specified url
--hidden - start hidden
--minimized - start minimized
Are there any features you would like FDM to via the command line?

Hopefully it can let me decide which folder to save the file,
and let me decide the filename,
and whether to use proxy. At least, it can follow IE proxy settings.

I'd like to be able to run some action after the is completed. Either by running the in command line and waiting for it to complete or log some event to OS. Is that possible?

Hello,
You can use FDM settings for this (Advanced | Automation section).
