SUMMARY
The command-line switches supported in FoxPro for Windows and FoxPro for MS- DOS are not supported in FoxPro for Macintosh.



MORE INFORMATION
Since the Macintosh environment does not allow the use of command-line switches, the following switches are not supported in FoxPro for Macintosh:   -C = Specify configuration file -E = Prevent use of all expanded memory -K = Prevent attempts to use F11 or F12 -T = Suppress FoxPro sign-on screen



RESOLUTION
To emulate the -C switch, double-click the CONFIG.FPM file that is desired. FoxPro will then execute and use that configuration file.

The -E and -K switches are not needed in the Macintosh environment.

The -T switch is no longer supported by FoxPro for Macintosh. However, it is still supported by FoxPro for Windows & FoxPro for MS-DOS.
