Command-line options

  • --no-overlay Disables the creation of the Overlay Window completely. Can be useful for Linux users using APT in the browser.

  • --listen=[host][:port] Changes the listening address for the built-in server. Can be useful for people with buggy VPN clients that won't let connect to a local address. Use --listen=0.0.0.0 in that case. By default, the server gets a random port, so bookmarking the page in the browser is useless. You can change that as well.

  • --no-updates Disables automatic downloading of updates and, consequently, their installation.

Since this tool is built on top of Electron/Chromium, it also inherits all their command-line options.
