How do you start uplink with command line options?
This is from the Uplink Demo ReadMe.

COMMAND LINE OPTIONS

Uplink can be started with a variety of command line options.
Each option begins with either a '+' or a '-', to enable or
disable an option. For example, starting uplink with the command

uplink -graphics_fullscreen

would start the game with fullscreen DISABLED, while starting it like this:

uplink +graphics_fullscreen

will start the game with fullscreen ENABLED.

It says "starting uplink with the command 'uplink -graphics_fullscreen"
It's not that easy.
Do you use those codes in Command Prompt?
And how do you start uplink?
You can't just type uplink to start it.
Any help will do
I just need to know how to start uplink through Command Line Options.

The code is added to the end of the entire address pointing to the executable, i.e. "C:\...\uplink.exe" +<tag here> .
This can be done through the command line, Start -> Run..., or by adding the command line option to the 'target' field in a shortcut.
