Command-line option to start in New Program Window

[gor1515]

Hello.

I am using SoftMaker 2018 (licensed).

I need to work on two documents in *separate* windows, to compare, copy from one to the other, etc.

I start edit sessions from the command line, and have for years. I use this command file:
/usr/bin/textmaker18 $1 2>/home/admin1/pub/tmaker.log &

When I start two documents this way, they appear in the same window, with tabs on top. I know that I can drag one by the tab to create a separate window, but this is cumbersome.

I'd like to add an argument to my command file that will start the second document in a separate window.
I can find no documentation of command-line options.

Is there a way for me to achieve this?

Thanks for any help. And thanks for a great product. In windows, I am in the process of moving from Microsoft Word to TextMaker, and in linux, I've been using TextMaker all along, so the answer to my question is important to me.

Thanks again!

You can open a terminal window and paste the following: (or create a .sh file with this):
/usr/bin/textmaker18 &
/usr/bin/textmaker18 &

OR

when in TextMaker, press CTRL+O and click on "New program window"
