.SH DESCRIPTION
\fB@IMAGEX_PROGNAME@ update\fR modifies the specified \fIIMAGE\fR in the Windows
Imaging (WIM) file \fIWIMFILE\fR by adding, deleting, or renaming files or
The modifications to perform on the WIM image are specified as a sequence of
commands, one per line, read in a text file from standard input. It is
recommended that standard input be redirected from a file (\fICMDFILE\fR), as
-shown above, rather than typing in commands interactively.
+shown above, rather than typing in commands interactively. Alternatively, to
+specify a command directly on the command line, see the \fB--command\fR option.
.SH AVAILABLE COMMANDS
This section documents the commands that may appear in the \fICMDFILE\fR
described above.
Rebuilding the WIM is slower, but will save a little bit of space that would
otherwise be left as a hole in the WIM. Also see
\fB@IMAGEX_PROGNAME@-optimize\fR (1).
+.TP
+\fB--command\fR=\fISTRING\fR
+Instead of reading update commands from standard input, read a single update
+command directly from the string \fISTRING\fR specified on the command line.
+This option cannot be provided more than one time and cannot be used to specify
+more than one update command. Note that the \fISTRING\fR, as well as any
+paths containing spaces within the \fISTRING\fR must be appropriately quoted.
+If running from cmd.exe on Windows, you should use double quotes for the outer
+quotes and single quotes for the inner quotes. Example:
+.RS
+.RS
+.PP
+.nf
+@IMAGEX_PROGNAME@ update boot.wim 1 --command="add 'C:\\My Dir' '\\My Dir'"
+.RE
+.RE
+.fi
