Do I get you right that you want to start JOSM all the time with your predefined setting ? If yes, I already wrote replace the settings with your predefined after exit. I do not your operating system but the script should be like this: * start JOSM * (after exit) remove JOSM preference folder * copy your predefined preference folder in place Only thing you should do from time to time is to replace your predefined folder with an up to date preference folder because the preference slightly changes sometimes. > Wondering about --D.

There are variables for java and there even exist some for JOSM itself. - is for java -- for JOSM Start JOSM in a console/terminal like: java -jar .../josm-tested --help to get some small info.
