   Some windows snippets:   
      
   int main(int argc, char **argv); // subsystem (text-mode)   
      
   int wmain(int argc, wchar_t **argv); // gui   
      
   And to muddy the waters further (what I tend to use)...   
      
   #include    
   #include    
      
   int main(void) {   
      
       LPSTR cmd = GetCommandLineA();   
      
       printf("Raw command line:\n%s\n", cmd);   
      
       return 0;   
   }   
      
   c:\> app.exe foo "bar baz" 123   
   "app.exe" foo "bar baz" 123
