The bot allows certain command line parameters to be passed to it when starting up. The Director already uses these when it sends your email, server, delay, etc. to the bot when launching it.
An example of using these command line parameters from a Windows 7 command prompt:
C:\NeatBot> NEAT2345.exe -u neatbot@neatportal.com -password abcdefg -s 123 -title NeatBotRox
You can also use these with the Director at the bottom where it says Custom Parameters. Simply type in the parameter(s) you want and restart the bot(s) you want to be affected by them. If they're a one-time deal, like to enable some global setting for one account only, then delete the parameters afterwards or they'll be applied to every bot at each restart until the Director itself is restarted.
