Re: How to accept extra command line args?

[James Henstridge <james daa com au>]

If you know of every possible argument that the non-gnome part of your
program takes, you could do something like in
gnome-libs/libgnomeui/gnome-init.c to collect the arguments for gtk_init()

That is the best example I can think of.
