Debug executable with arguments in IDA

Question

In the disassembler and debugger IDA, is there any way to run the currently loaded binary with command line parameters? For instance, say I have the command /bin/ls and want to debug it as /bin/ls test.txt, how could I do that in IDA?

I've searched the Internet for an answer, and can't find anything! The best I could find was a forum where a user asked this question, and then was rudely instructed to do some Google-ing on his own first, before asking! Not very helpful... – Tarbes

Answer 1

Go to the Debugger / Process options... menu item and fill the test.txt argument in the Parameters field.

The path to the executable (including the binary) will be in the Application field.

Thank you, that's just what I need! Now, hopefully, this will be an easier question to Google for! – Tarbes
