--multihead

--depth=DEPTH

Preferred color DEPTH.

--disable-nls

FILE

Load the Lisp file FILE (from the cwd if possible, implies --batch mode).

--batch

Batch mode: process options and exit.

--interp

Interpreted mode: don't load compiled Lisp files.

-f, --call FUNCTION

Call Lisp function FUNCTION.

-l, --load FILE

Load the file of Lisp forms called FUNCTION.

--version

Print version details.

--no-rc

Don't load rc or site-init files.
