Subject: regtool 2.11.1 need a way to specify leading "-" in values
Date: Tue, 22 Jan 2019 23:12:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <BN6PR16MB15549754495C4B7BA433E198E8980@BN6PR16MB1554.namprd16.prod.outlook.com> (raw)
I believe there is no way to specify values with leading "-" in regtool. I expect the same applies to keys. An "end of switch processing" switch would be useful, forcing 'regtool' to interpret all remaining arguments literally.
Example:
% regtool -s set '\HKCU\Environment\MAVEN_OPTS' "-Xms512m -Xmx3072m -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote"
regtool: unknown option -- X
Try `regtool --help' for more information.
% regtool --version
regtool (cygwin) 2.11.1
Registry tool
