The current user guide does have the following section on page 146 *Command-line argument variables*
If you start up the application from a command line, the command name is stored in the variable $0 and any arguments passed on the command line are stored in numbered variables starting with the *$ *character. For example, if you start the application by typing the following shell command: myrevapp -h name then the variable $0 contains "myrevapp" (the name of the application), $1 contains "-h", and $2 contains "name". *Note: *Command-line argument variables behave like global variables and can be used in any handler. However, you do not need to use the *global *command to declare them before using them. Is this just left over cruft?
