Command-line options

Call freeplane like this:

freeplane [options] [file1 [file2 ...]]
  • -h|--help: list available options
  • -X<menukey>: execute menu item with key <menukey>. Use devtools add-on to find the menu keys
  • -S: stop after executing menu items
  • -N: set the 'nonInteractive' system property to 'true'
  • -U<userdir>: set the freeplane user config directory (only since version 1.3.3!!!)

Batch execution of menu items (e.g. scripts) is described in a special wiki article.
