Engine commands
hci commands directly control the engine or the GUIs. These commands access the engine without GUIs and can:
- Start the GUIs outside the IDE.
- Modify the engine’s actions.
- Show and modify file contents.
- Customize user notifications, such as alerts and views.
A thorough understanding of the commands and their functions is required. Throughout the section, command input is noted with all options, although not all listed options are necessary in each command.
