Hi Kevin, Use the option "-b" when you invoke your application. Assuming that your executable is called myprog, do myprog -b In order to read the parameter given to the application, you should modify your code as indicated in your below: #include ... #include "TROOT.h" TROOT simple("simple","Extract Flashers"); int is_laser3(...); int main(int argc, char **argv) { TApplication theApp("App", &argc, argv); Rene Brun On Fri, 22 Sep 2000, Kevin Reil wrote: > Hi, > > I have a program which consists of a main procedure in one file and a > library routine compiled in another. > > I wish to only fill histograms, fit and take the fit parameters, never > to display anything.
