Command line arguments
The general command line of OpenOffice.org is defined as:
Usage: soffice[.exe] [options] [documents]
| Command | Purpose |
| -minimized | keeps start up bitmap minimized |
| -invisible | Initially no start up screen, no default document and UI is shown. It's possible to show documents via API. This option is not designed to use OOo as a "background" process. The API developer has to make sure that the views are opened non-visible. |
| -norestore | Suppress restart/restore after a fatal error. |

| -nodefault | Don't start with an empty document. |
| -headless | Suppresses any modal dialog so OpenOffice.org can run without user interaction. This is NOT designed to run OOo as a "background" process. The Office still starts and open document views. It's the task of a developer to use the API correctly to assure that no UI is shown. |
