SWITCHES

--help

-v, --verbose

Increase verbosity (the default verbosity level is 1).

-q, --quiet

Set verbosity to zero, that is, only errors and warnings will be printed.

-o, --output <path>

Write output (e.g. the generated executable) to the given path instead of to standard output.

--urlader <path>

Use the given file as urlader. What this means depends on the execution mode.

--windows-icon <path>

If the urlader executable is a windows executable, patch it with this icon resource (which must be in .ICO format). For other executables, this switch is ignored.

MODES

--pack <exe_id> <exe_ver> <path> [env-vars...] <program> [arguments...]

Packs the given directory tree, env-variable assignments, program path and arguments into an urlader archive and optionally prepend the urlader binary (see --urlader) and output the whole blob.

See the Urlader manual page for an explanation of exe_id, exe_ver and other concepts.
