Subject: Retrieving command line arguments to restart Emacs?
Date: Fri, 9 Jul 2010 02:47:48 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4cfa1057-057e-42d4-9a07-651ecc139968@i28g2000yqa.googlegroups.com> (raw)

Hello,

is there a way to retrieve Emacs' command line arguments inside Emacs
itself? I'd like to restart Emacs exactly as it was started without
relying on external tweaks.

There are some `command-line-*' variables which list arguments,
however they get consumed during startup. My understanding is the
`command-line' function does that and, since it runs before any user
code, you can't backup the command line in your initialization file.

Thanks.
