Description iformanek 2002-05-29 10:55:33 UTC 
if "runide.exe -?" is executed, it displays some command-
line parameters on the console, whereas "runide.exe -help" 
opens a dialog describing some other command-line options. 
Perhaps those 2 should be merged into one set of options 
and one way of displaying them.

Note that as of 3.5, the runide.sh Unix launcher tells you how to get
the IDE help, and the IDE help tells you how to get the launcher help
(which works with the same param for both launchers). So it is not so
bad now.

It would be possible to merge these together in the launcher, though a
bit less maintainable since several params are interpreted in Java
code and it is easier to ensure that they are kept up-to-date there.
