Which section did you read this in the documentation so I can have a look. By the way, do not modify the setup or main program, despite the advise you have heard from elsewhere. These programs were never meant to be modified and are integral parts of the framework.

I don't use the MM framework, but if nothing grabs parameters from the command line and you need the command line parameters to be passed to your application, you've lost the values if the main doesn't grab them. YMMV
