I think it would be useful to provide several command-line options to allow quick loading of Realm Works for different reasons.

1) the name of realm to open immediately.

2) auto-login to the server if the both username and password are already stored.

3) in conjunction with the above two options, automatically sync with the cloud.

4) in conjunction with the "auto sync", immediately exit Realm Works after the sync is finished.

5) in conjunction with (1), provide the name of a RWEXPORT file, or a RWSTRUCTURE file, to import the named file immediately into the named realm (with an additional option to disable the automatic backup of the realm before import, as can be done from the "advanced" section of the import dialog).

6) After auto-loading a specific realm, specify the name of a topic/article to be loaded into a tab (if one doesn't already, otherwise switch to the tab showing that topic).

This is a list of my initial ideas, I'm primarily interested in (5), but the others are probably of interest to other people.

I will keep the above list up-to-date with suggestions made later in the thread.
