SYNOPSIS

ptyxis [OPTION]… [−− PROGRAM ARGUMENTS]

DESCRIPTION

−−version**

Show the version of the program.

−−preferences

Show the preferences window.

−−new−window

Open a new window in an existing instance of Ptyxis. If Ptyxis is not running, a new instance is started.

May be combined with −−working−directory and −−execute and −−title options.

−−tabOpen a new tab in the most-recently-used window of an existing Ptyxis instance. If Ptyxis is not running, a new instance is started.

May be combined with −−working−directory and −−execute and −−title options.

−x, −−execute

Execute a custom command.

This is similar to using −− to provide the custom command except that the entire command line should be provided as a single argument.

In general, you should use −− instead of this option. This is primarily available to be similar to bash -c ’command’

May be combined with −−working−directory and −−title options.

−d, −−working−directory

Set the current working directory for a new tab, window, or custom command.

−−title=TITLE

Sets the title for a new terminal page created with either −−tab or −−new-window.

−−tab−with−profile=PROFILE

Creates a new tab in an existing instance using the specified profile. The profile should be a UUID string which can be found in the profile editor of the preferences dialog.

−s, −−standalone

Run a new instance of Ptyxis, ignoring any instances already running.

−h, −−help

Show a summary of options.

Other standard GNOME options not listed here are also supported.
