Default Profile at Start Up

Hi everybody!

I'm using K-Meleon 0.6 on WinXP.
I wonder if there is a way to start K-Meleon with the correct profile according to the user (profile "Lars" when I'm logged in, profile "admin" when admin is logged in etc.) so one would not see the "choose-profile"-dialogue at start-up?

Thanx for tips!

well, depending on how you usually start the program, you could try adding the profile argument to the command (in the shortcut, file association, or what have you), as in:

k-meleon.exe -P Lars

but you may have already tried that. i can't think of anything else, though... does windoze have an environment variable for current user? you could use that if you made the profile names exactly the same as whatever it spits out... i (thankfully?) don't know too much about multi-user set-ups on windows, so maybe there's a better way...

yup, should work with the p argument

I have to use /p USER instead of -p USER.
