Send args to Firefox when launching from terminal
Additional arguments on start of Google Chrome from Terminal app are send in a following way:
open /Applications/Google\ Chrome.app --args -myArgs="ARGS"
What is the syntax to sending arguments to Firefox?
Tried the obvious:
open /Applications/Firefox.app --args -myArgs="ARGS"
This runs the Firefox, but the args are not set.
In order to pass arguments to an application opened by the open
command, use both the -a
and the --args
options.
Example: open -a Firefox --args -private-window
From the open
man page: open [ −a application] file ... [ −−args arg1 ...]
