Available mode options:

-(BG|BackGround)

runs in background; suppresses screen output and errors

-(CL|CleanLocal)

removes local files after all are successfully archived

-(EM|EMailNotice)

sends an email summary (including any errors) when the action completes or aborts

-(GZ|GMTZone)

uses GMT rather than local time for archiving timestamps

-(KP|KeepLocalPath)

uses local file paths as relative paths on the GDEX Server

-(MD|MyDataset)

allows any specialist to set GDEXDB information, regardless of dataset ownership

-(NE|NoEmail)

suppresses email notification on failure

-(NT|NoTrim)

skips trimming of spaces and comments from input values, speeding up input file processing

-(OE|OverrideExist)

overwrites existing Help files

-(RO|ResetOrder)

resets display order indices to match the order files are given per -HF. Alternatively, use -ON (-OrderNames) to reorder all files in the dataset and affected groups

-(SC|SetChecksum)

computes MD5 checksums for Help files and saves them to GDEXDB

Local file names are provided via -LF (-LocalFile). On the command line, ‘*’ and ‘?’ wildcards are supported. Files not in the current directory must include relative or absolute paths. If a directory is given via -LD (-LocalDirectory), files are gathered recursively.

Local file names are used as Help file names by default unless -HF (-HelpFile) is given explicitly. When -KP (-KeepLocalPath) is specified, local file paths are used as-is on the GDEX Server.

The number of values supplied to Info options must match the number of local file names, except for options that accept a single shared value: -DF, -AF, and -HT (-HelpFileType).

The storage location is set via -LC (-Location). Defaults to ‘B’ (both Web Disk and bOreas).
