Command Line Interface

Kando comes with a command line interface (CLI) that allows you to interact with Kando from the terminal. You learn how to run Kando from the terminal in the advanced usage section. For now, these commands are available:

--help

Prints the help message for the CLI.

--version or -v

Prints the version of Kando.

--menu "Menu Name" or -m "Menu Name"

Opens the menu with the given name. This also works if Kando is already running. In this case, the menu will be opened in the running instance.

--settings or -s

Opens the settings window. This also works if Kando is already running. In this case, the settings window will be opened in the running instance.

--reload-menu-theme
