    6 Three groups of command line options can be involved in starting JOSM.
     6Starting JOSM is affected by three groups of command line options.
     7Most important are the ''Programm arguments'' and also the ''Java options''. The ''run-options'' are involved in Web Start only.

    17 Beginning on the right-hand-side of the command line these groups are:

    19 Programm arguments or ''Post jar arguments'' for JOSM::
    20  Control JOSM directly, for example `--language=ru` or `--skip-plugins` or `--help`
    21  <filename|URL>
    2219Java Virtual Machine options::
    2320 Control the handler of virtual machine, for example `--Xmx2048m`. The `--jar jarfile` part is a java option, too.

    29 The option group names used here follow the documentation on [https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/tools/unix/java.html#CBBIJCHG Runtime Engine] and on [https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/tools/unix/javaws.html Web Start].

    33 These options need to be provided after the -jar josm.jar part of the command line.
     29Also called ''Post jar arguments'' here or ''args'' by Java.
     30The order of these arguments behind the jarfile in the command line is important for some of them.
     31
     32The first argument is the ''commmand'' for JOSM. The three possible commmands are `one` for normal work, `one` for image and `one` for something other. If JOSM can't recognize a command the default is assumed and the usual GUI is started.
     33
     34The following arguments can be URLs, coordinates, options with own arguments and filenames. See the output of the --help option below.
