All Mikero tools 'behave', install, and operate in an identical manner. You are strongly advised to read the General Readme once.
QueryAddons works on individual files, folder(s), or pbo's.
QueryAddons works on mission.sqms and/or config.cpp/bin's.
file types can be raPified or normal text.
The default use of QueryAddons is to provide a list of addon dependencies for that mission.sqm or config.cpp/bin.
It inspects addons[]= and AddonsAuto[]= in mission.sqm. and RequiredAddons[]= in configs.
Folder usage is similar. It's intent is to reflect an exploded, or, yet-to-be-made, pbo. Particularly useful for campaign inspection.
The files are hunted recursively thru all sub folders (if any)
Pbo usage should be self explanatory, in that QueryAddons is looking inside, as if it were a folder tree.
A no nonsense auto installer saving you sweat and tears.
Do not run this, or any tool from bis, as administrator.
'Admin' is not what you think it is, it is an alias for 'Microsoft Office Use only'.
Consider yourself warned.

QueryAddons [-options] File/Folder/OrPbo
Options are case insensitive.
Name can be:
-n | Csv output-a | List addons (default)for configs only
-u | Units-w | Weapons-v | RequiredVersion-c | ClassName(s) of the addon-p | Don't pauseConfig options are aggregated, you can specify
QueryAddons -aucwvfor example.

Press the ANY key
Pbos are NOT checked or looked for in folder tree mode.
It would be illogical to list addons from more than one.
In the unlikely event that both a mission.sqm, AND, a config.cpp is encountered in a pbo or folder.
BOTH will make up the list.
Csv output (if any) is intended to feed a database, either directly, or, via pipe > .csv
If csv is specified, the type of query (units,weapons eg) is not listed
Config options are only relevant when config.cpp/bins are encountered.
The results of specifying them for mission.sqm's is in-determinate.
