 +===== Command-line arguments =====
 +
 +gschem accepts several optional arguments on the command-line. ​ You can get a list of them by running ''​gschem -h''​. gschem also has a manpage (''​man gschem''​) which lists all of the command line options that it accepts.
 +
 +==== Message output and diagnostics ====
 +
 +| **-q**, **%%--%%quiet** ​  | Quiet mode. Turn off all warnings/​notes/​messages. |
 +| **-v**, **%%--%%verbose** | Verbose mode.  Output extra diagnostic information. |
 +| **-h**, **%%--%%help** ​   | Print a help message. |
 +| **-V**, **%%--%%version** | Print gschem version information. |
 +
 +==== Scheme extensibility ====
 +
 +| **-L** __DIRECTORY__ ​         | Prepend __DIRECTORY__ to the list of directories to be searched for Scheme files. |
 +| **-s** __FILE__ ​              | Specify a Scheme script to be executed at startup. |
 +| **-c** __EXPR__ ​              | Specify a Scheme expression to be evaluated at startup. |
 +
 +==== Other ====
 +
 +| **-r**, **%%--%%config-file**=__FILE__ | Specify an additional configuration file to be read after all other configuration files have been processed. |
 +| **-o**, **%%--%%output**=__FILE__ | Specify a filename for generating PostScript output. ​ This command line argument is useful when running gschem from a shell script and with a Scheme script. ​ The filename can be changed through the print dialog box. |
 +| **-p** | Automatically ​ place  the  window. This may be useful if running gschem from the command line and generating output. |
 +| **%%--%%** | Treat all remaining arguments as schematic or symbol filenames. ​ Use this if you have a schematic or symbol filename which begins with "​-"​. |
