Command line arguments in DownloadStudio
I think we may need to improve the help file to make launching via command line clearer.
DownloadStudio needs actual XML on the command line, not a file containing XML. For example here is a basic command line execution of downloadstudio to add a new job.
c:\...\downloadstudio.exe "<downloadstudio><script><add_jobs display_dialog=yes><joblist><job><url>http://www.conceiva.com/products/downloadstudio/faqs.asp</url></job></joblist></add_jobs></script></downloadstudio>"
When this is executed it will open downloadstudio (if it is not already open) and open the dialog to add a job to download the FAQ page from our web site.
If you want it to download straight away without showing the dialog, change the display_dialog=yes to display_dialog=no.
You can also set all the settings for the job, for example referrer, output filename and location, number of splits to use and so on.
I hope this helps you get this working and we will make sure the help is improved for the next version.
