Some of the more complex commands offer an alternative scheme of named command parameters. For example, here we provide two parameters named "port" and "host": ``` --listen port=8090 host=0.0.0.0 ``` Note that the order of the parameters does not matter. Using special characters within a parameter requires quoting. Unix, Linux and the Mac use single quotes, and Windows uses double quotes: ``` --listen port=8090 username=joe 'password=s3cret(!' --listen port=8090 username=joe "password=s3cret(!" ``` Note that the quotes are applied to the entire name=value pair, not just to the value part.
