I've had a look at a few programs and they all require command line changes to set up specific option. I have no idea how to get this to work with WM5.0 and no ammount of Googling and forum searches has helped. I know what to do in a desktop environment but there is no option for mobile based applications. Can anyone tell me how to add command line options to a program or shortcut on WM5.0?

if you just want to launch an app with command line hold down the action key (the one in the middle of the d-pad) then long-tap the clock / battery icon area on the top bar. Release the action button and a popup menu will appear giving you the "RUN" option just like on a desktop PC.

Oh, wow! That is a very handy bit of information!

Sorry to bring up such an old thread, but I haven't been able to get this d-pad trick to work (in WM6.1). The app just opens as soon as I press down the center button. I've also been trying to do it through Total Commander but I haven't been able to figure out where to specify the options. I've been at this for two days. Can someone please point me in the right direction so I stop feeling like an idiot? Thanks. :)
