[kepler-users] How to pass String and File Parameters using Command Line

[Josep Morer Muñoz]

Hi all,

I am having problems when I try to execute a KAR using the command line with
String and File Parameters. As I understand, when a parameter is a number,
you put -parameter 2 f.e  and if it is a string or a file path, you put
-parameter "string". However, for string and file parameters does not work
because I am having errors like this:
