How to Launch Any Chromium Application From Command Line

[Edwind Ow]

Hello, 

I am facing the problem of launching chromium application directly from the shell command line (Ctrl+Alt+T) in Chrome OS that is installed in virtual box. Can I know whether there is any method and code to run the chromium OS application by using the command line just like how it does in chroot?

Thank you.

what kind of program do you want to run exactly ? there isn't a X wm
running, so you can't really run other GUI programs.

Sorry there is a confusion. I actually want to run a chrome apps from command line. For example I would like to run angry birds from the command line.

Thank you.

Hello,

I have figured out that using the --app-id flag can launch the Chrome app in the Chrome OS command line. However, I do not know what is the way of keying the code with this flag, is that using /opt/google/chrome/chrome --app-id <app id> ?

Thank you.
