It'd be really useful to have a command option to use or import a JSON profile from the command line when launching cool-retro-term on a system that don't have a mouse. And even with a mouse, that option could automate the process.

Ideally --profile should be able to take a JSON directly, but another option like --import-profile foo.json would work too, although there's a potential for confusion: should the profile then be used in the invoked session or not?

I use a script to launch qemu from cool-retro-term -e sh -c qemu -display curses after reading https://github.com/Swordfish90/cool-retro-term/issues/119 to understand how to use the -e option but I'm stuck regarding the profile.

It seems that I could modify the sqlite2 db directly in the meantime but I haven't explored that yet.

Anyway, thanks for that awesome term <3
