+{{{
+-Djosm.home=/PATH/TO/JOSM/FOLDER/         Change the folder for all user settings

+note: For some tasks, JOSM needs a lot of memory. It can be necessary to add the following Java option to specify the maximum size of allocated memory in megabytes:
+{{{
+-Xmx...m

+examples
+{{{
+java -jar josm.jar track1.gpx track2.gpx london.osm
+java -jar josm.jar http://www.openstreetmap.org/index.html?lat=43.2&lon=11.1&zoom=13
+java -jar josm.jar london.osm --selection=http://www.ostertag.name/osm/OSM_errors_node-duplicate.xml
+java -jar josm.jar 43.2,11.1,43.4,11.4
+java -Djosm.home=/home/user/.josm_dev -jar josm.jar
+java -Xmx400m -jar josm.jar
+}}}
+
+Parameters are read in the order they are specified, so make sure you load
+some data before --selection
+
+
+Note: Currently you can also specify {{{<url>}}} or {{{<filename>}}} arguments to {{{--downloadgps}}}. In this case it is the same as {{{--download}}}. This is not a supported usage and may be illegal in future versions.
