its equivalent to the classic hldsupdatetool command:
hldsupdatetool.exe -command update -game "tf_beta" -dir
<insert_your_directory_here> -verify_all
Here is a good example for me to pick on. Please pardon my pointy rant.
I'm trying to be positive with my criticism, so don't please think I'm
just trying to be a jerk. I realize that I'm calling out someone's work
here.
With the old steam tool, you specified the working directory with the
"-dir" argument. That's perfectly reasonable and sane.
With the new one, it's "+force_install_dir".
Why are we forcing it? Can we NOT force it?
And why is it the "install" dir. Can there be some other dir where we
might have otherwise gotten confused about which dir we were specifying?

Why was -dir not usable enough that it needed to be re-invented badly?
