Command-line Option

Description

The MIMEARGS resource may be used to pass optional arguments to MIME filters to control their behavior. Arguments may be defined on a per content-type basis, or for a specific filter itself. The MIMEARGS resource can only be set via the MIMEARGS element. The syntax for each line of the the MIMEARGS element is as follows:

content-type:argument-string

Or,

filter-name:argument-string

The format of argument strings is dependent on the filter that processes content-type or by the specified filter, filter-name.

If an argument string is defined for a filter explicitly and for a content-type that the filter processes, the content-type string will override the filter string.
