Chatterino2: --channels and/or -c args not working

Created on 16 Nov 2020  路  2Comments  路  Source: Chatterino/chatterino2

Describe the bug
The command line arguments for launching certain channels aren't working. I've tried every variant I can think of, including
chatterino -c t:joviandragon
chatterino --channels joviandragon
chatterino --channels t:joviandragon

I've also tried changing capitalization, using quotation marks, removing spaces, adding colons... as much as I could think of. the most I got was getting an error message if I tried something like -Ctheemster, although it just says those are unhandled options. Otherwise, I never even get an error message. The application just completely ignores the arguments.

To reproduce
Just try to use the --channels command line switch with any given twitch channel. The window will either come up empty or with the channels you were already in and that's it.

Chatterino version
Chatterino 2.2.3-beta (commit 7d2b64087)
I've also tried it in the stable 2.2.2 release as well.

Operating system
Both Arch Linux and Windows 10

Additional information
--version and --help aren't working in Windows 10, but they are working in Linux. --help-all doesn't work in either. --version and --help on Windows just seem to print out nothing, whereas with --help-all the application just launches as though there were no arguments just like with -c.

@pajlada correct, sorry for slacking on this one but some code responsible for this function got lost in a merge conflict. I looked into this and I am in the process of restoring that :+1:

Confirmed this is a bug - it was lost in some merge conflict. I think @zneix will be looking into this.

Thanks for the report
