As well as the listing file names on the command line, the following switches are available to UNIX users:
This option tells Artemis to suppress normal informational messages while running.
This option instructs Artemis to read an extra file of options after reading the standard options. (See the section called The Options File in Chapter 4 for more about the Artemis options file.)
For example -options ./new_options will instruct Artemis to read new_options in the current directory as an options file.
On Digital Unix (AKA Tru64) the -fast flag selects the "fast" Java virtual machine, which usually gives Artemis a big speed boast. This isn't on by default because the fast VM uses a lot more memory and it isn't as reliable.
