Not yet. I plan to implement it at some point. If you explain a bit what you're attempting to do it could be applied to the future implementation.

Switching video modes just by double-clicking an icon on the desktop would get some use here!

Hi Calamity
so.. I've a 25 Khz Monitor.
usually for change resolution i use Multires line command.
for use linbergs games i need to set my desktop at 640x480.
if i set 640x480 via multires i've always a black screen, probabily because multires set 640x480 at 31khz...

the only way that i've for set 640x480 at 24khz is use arcade OSD and at this moment i do this terrible thing with autoit...

un ("C:\roba_utile\crt_emudriver_&_tools_2.0_beta_14_16.2.1_W.7.8.10-64\arcade_osd.exe")
Sleep(3000)
Send("{1}")
Sleep(100)
Send("{down 3}")
Sleep(100)
Send("{1}")
Sleep(100)
Send("{down 4}")
Sleep(100)
Send("{1}")
Sleep(100)
Send("{down}")
Sleep(100)
Send("{1}")
Sleep(100)
Send("{esc 2}")

this is why i'm looking for a command line..

many thanks.

Not exactly what you asked for, but nircmd (http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/nircmd.html)'s setdisplay option lets you specify refresh rate. That might work for you until Calamity adds the feature.

In multires command lines options too I can specifafy refresh rate and colors depth, bur unfortunally the change of these options don't solve the problem.
