255443 - Help files missing information on Mozilla command line parameters.

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 250981

(SeaMonkey :: Help Documentation, defect)

Description

[Andrew Poth]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040616
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040616

Help files need information on the command line parameters that mozilla.exe
recognizes:

mozilla -browser  
mozilla -mail  
mozilla -editor  
mozilla -addressbook  

This is essential information for creating Windows shortcuts or writing scripts.
  Need to index under the search terms "parameter", "argument" and "command
line".  Lack of this information forces user to resort to hex file viewer and
root around in the executable code for clues, assuming he/she even has access to
a hex file viewer, knows how to use it and what to look for!

This has been a long-standing hole in the browser help files since Netscape 1.0
