i did this (gn args out/foo) and now i'm confused, what gn arguments should i save in this file ? should i just paste this  (--args='is_debug=false target_cpu="x64" v8_target_cpu="arm64" use_goma=true') as arguments?
and if i'm doing this (Generate build files using v8gen) what should be inside this quotes (v8gen -b 'V8 Linux64 - debug builder' -m client.v8 foo) ? 
i did this (v8gen list -m client.v8) and from the resulting list i typed (v8gen -b 'V8 Win64 - debug' -m client.v8 foo) and i'm getting this as OP:-
{
   usage: v8gen.py [-h] {gen,list} ...
   v8gen.py: error: unrecognized arguments: - debug' foo
}
My specs:-  Windows 10 64bit (Intel i7 7700 hq)
