So should we fprintf the usage statement and exit(1); or should we print both the usage, and the error for the invalid switch.Unfortunately I don't have a copy of win98's regedit, and winxp's regedit does not accept command line switches (I have tried), so I can't check (easily) how the native regedit that ours is supposed to be command-line compatible with, does it.
Neither. I just figured out why /? is not working. I can't believe that I did not think of this before. The shell processes an unescaped ?. In order for it to work, I have to use /\? .. If I just do /? then s ends up being /c /d and so ch ends up being c, which makes chu C (which is missing from the ignored switches if statement).. With the old code: regedit /c returns "regedit: Undefined switch /C!" regedit /? returns "regedit: Undefined switch /C!" regedit /C returns "regedit: Undefined switch /C!" The usage shows /c and /C as being valid switches. So.. I changed the line if (chu == 'S' || chu == 'V') { to if (chu == 'S' || chu == 'V' || chu == 'C') { and so now: regedit /c opens regedit regedit /? shows the usage statement !!!!! regedit /C opens regedit Is this a proper fix? Can I submit it? The diff is attached.. -- Thanks Tom Check out this new 3D Instant Messenger called IMVU.
