sysArgCount - BambooBasic

sysArgCount

Category: System

Syntax:

sysArgCount:Int()

Parameters

None.

Returns

Int

Summary

Returns how many arguments were given after the program's name.

The shell splits the command line into arguments: spaces separate them, and quotes keep one that has spaces in it whole ("level 1.txt" is one argument, without its quotes). Read them with sysArg(1) to sysArg(sysArgCount()). Returns 0 when there are none.
