I would like to request a command line parameter to open minimo in fullscreen mode.

This will be useful for creating a kiosk mode on mobile devices where the user is locked into a web interface. 

Reproducible: Didn't try

Attachment: command line parser for minimo on linux

That's a draft of a command line support on linux. Besides fullscreen, it also comprises --url <any.web.site.com> and --file </path/to/file>, and might be easily extended ...

doug, is it the right path to go ?

this bug is related to bug 336136

what about if the process is already started?  Shouldn't minimo be more like a service?

This would allow you to register minimo as the default handler for urls.  

i suggest that you create a small runner application and pass params without having to create a new process.

Check out the runner application i created for windows.

we are not going to be supporting the minimo application any longer.
