Does PureBasic have a way to retrieve variables passed to it via command line??
example: file.exe /var1/var2
Then inside file.exe it is able to extract a=var1, b=var2

InitWindow(0)
cmd.l=GetCommandLine_() ; the API call to retrieve a pointer to the command line
#WindowWidth = 600
#WindowHeight = 345
If OpenWindow(0, 10, 120, #WindowWidth, #WindowHeight,#PB_Window_SystemMenu, "Command line example")
DrawingOutput(WindowId())
Locate (40,40):DrawText(peeks(cmd))
Stopdrawing()
Repeat
EventID.l = WaitWindowEvent()
Until EventID = #PB_EventCloseWindow
EndIf
End
