How can i pass windows commandline parameters to an exe file

e.g.

"c:\\MOHPA.exe" +set ui_console 1

This would enable the game condole.

Which way i can add this to the pol Shortcuts?

Thank You

"Arguments" seems to be the correct technical wording for it, but maybe it would be easier to find if it was called "Parameters"?

Looking for false friends, I've found "Leave the default location" (where should I go now? :P)
If you find other broken or at least non idiomatic wordings, feel free to report them...

Thank you. Yeah this should be the right one. In german-langpack it's really called parameter. It adds the parameter to the Shortcut-script.
But unluckily it does not really work.... perhaps i'll try different programms and functions

Never heard of it not working though, so you must be doing something wrong.

I think there is a little bug.
When i add the parameters, in the shortcut script it is savad in this kind
POL_Wine MOHAA.exe +set developer +set ui_console 1 +set cheats 1 +set thereisnomonkey 1 "$@"
That does not work.

If i change it this way:
POL_Wine "MOHAA.exe" +set developer +set ui_console 1 +set cheats 1 +set thereisnomonkey 1 "$@"
It will work. The exe should be in "marks".

I don't see how it could make any difference, because they're only seen by the shell interpreter.
