Examine32 Text Search manual Command Line

Examine32 Text Search can make use of the command line to run a search parameter file. These files can be produced using any of the search dialog boxes using the 'save' button. If you wish you can send your search results to an output file. However if you do this then your results will not be displayed in a Search Window.

The general format for the command line is

examine.exe <command line switches> search parameter file <output file>

For example

examine.exe -dh "c:\my documents\search files\search.exa"
"c:\program files\examine32\examine.exe" search.exa
examine.exe –dh search.exa results.txt

Command line switches

-d[h,s]	h, don't display search dialog box before starting search
	s (default), show search dialog box




-o[l,r,x]	l (default), output results to file in log format (plain text)
	r, output results to file in Rich Text Format (rtf)
	x, output results to file in XML (examl) format




-q	quit the program immediately after the search is completed. This option should be used with care. Once the program has closed any pending commands will be discarded.
