Since the --batch option hasn't previously worked under Windows, I haven't yet had the opportunity to try it (successfully) either. Guess I'll just have to install 2.0, and find out... FWIW, it has been difficult for me to work up to this change so far, because other than the command line arguments issue, 1.2.4 has been generally working well for us, and my copy has some initial display scale customizations that I implemented and am somewhat loathe to give up. However, I know that Sven and company implemented some kind of alternate initial scaling that was intended to address essentially the same issues that I was trying to solve, so hopefully that will be adequate for our needs. s/KAM
