OPTIONS
  +{command}
  -c {command}
             {command} will be executed after the first file has been read.  {command} is interpreted
             as an Ex command.  If the {command} contains spaces it must be enclosed in double quotes
             (this depends on the shell that is used).  Example: Vim "+set si" main.c
             Note: You can use up to 10 "+" or "-c" commands.

  --cmd {command}
             Like using "-c", but the command is executed just before processing any vimrc file.  You
             can use up to 10 of these commands, independently from "-c" commands.
