Initial command-line-only options

A subset of client options is valid on the initial command line only. Many of these options establish the runtime environment, such as the commmethod and optfile options. Options in this category are not valid in interactive, macro, or scheduler modes. They generate an error and cause processing to stop.

Table 1 lists the options that are valid only on the initial command line.
