SuperLab provides a command line interface that can be used to automatically launch an experiment, specify the name of the output file, and so forth.
These commands, sometimes called “switches”, usually have a short form and a long form, e.g. –r or ––run. You can use either one.
Some commands require a value. If this value contains a space, you need to enclose the value in quotes. For example
superlab --expfile=“C:\My Documents\experiment.sl6”
