Tony,
Here is the code I use to get the command line parameters.
SET VAR vCompiled TEXT = NULL
GETPROPERTY Application ISCOMPILED vCompiled
IF vCompiled = 'YES' THEN
SET VAR vCommandLine TEXT
IF (CHKFUNC('GetCommandLineA')) = 0 THEN
STDCALL FUNCTION 'GetCommandLineA' ALIAS 'GetCommandLine' () : TEXT
ENDIF
SET VAR vCommandLine = (DLCALL('Kernel32', 'GetCommandLineA'))
--Remove double quotes from string
SET VAR vCommandLine = (SRPL(.vCommandLine,'"','',0))
--Remove exe name from string
SET VAR vPos INTEGER = (SLOC(.vCommandLine,'.exe'))
SET VAR vParms = (SGET(.vCommandLine,SLEN(.vCommandLine),(.vPos+4)))
SET VAR vParms = (TRIM(.vParms))
--parse out parameters as needed
ENDIF

Subject: [RBASE-L] - passing a variable when compiled application is started
Hi,
A long time ago, using the first compiler of R:base, I was able to pass a
variable when I started a compiled application
Something like this:
Testapp.exe testvariable
The value 'testvariable' was stored in a variable and could be used in the
program.
I cannot find anything in the help files.
A similar command is described in the run-command, but I don't see how I can
use this in a compiled environment
Tony
