Setting command line parameters on all versions of Windows is accomplished by modifying the parameters of fldigi's desktop icon. Open the icon by right clicking on the icon. This is an example of modifying the font size:
The before and after for changing the font size:
Note the space between the location of the executable and the command line parameter. Multiple parameters can be entered. Each parameter must be exactly as shown in the list and separated from it's neighbors by at least 1 space. If the parameter has spaces in the value then it must be enclosed in quotations. For example:
–home-dir "C:\Documents and Settings\dave\fldigi-vhf.files"
For –home-dir I would also recommend changing the name of the launcher icon.
Linux users may also change the command line parameters. Here is an example of modifying the fldigi icon that was added to a Mint-17 launch bar:
Changing the font or font size can result in some loss of text on a control label. The size of a control and it's label space do not change when the font is modified on the command line.
