In 'Forum > Problems and Bugs > Behavior of '-INIT' command line option', I mentioned:
to which George replied:
So now might be a good time to amend the help section of "-INIT option" in "SPFLite Command Line Options" within "Starting and Ending SPFLite" under "Working with SPFLite" to something like:
That should improve readability and document the short form as it is for the other options. I should have mentioned this in a Documentation Topic in the first place.

I have a documentation comment. I inferred the use of this option from the example. ... .
. . . The example used the form '-I'. I noticed that for '-BROWSE' and '-VIEW', help describes short form usage, but not for '-INIT'.

First, all the command line options can be specified using any length desired -I -IN -INI -INIT -B -BROWSE -BR etc.

The -INIT (or any abbreviation down to -I) option causes SPFLite use a different INI file for customization, instead of SPFLite.INI. This allows you to have INI files with different global options such as handling of file deletions, fonts and screen colors, mouse and keyboard options, etc. (Note that keyboard mappings are held in the SPFLite.KBD file, which cannot be overridden like the INI file can.)
To use, add -INIT initname to the command line, where initname is either:
o the base name of the alternate INI file. For example, to start SPFLite using an INI file named CUSTOM.INI the command line would be -INIT CUSTOM. The INI file will be searched for in the normal SPFLite data path (Documents\SPFLite).
o A fully qualified path to the INI file.
Example: -INIT "D:\Data\Editors\SPFLite\CUSTOM.INI"
