I'm trying to make author notes available to myself in a CLI project.  At https://pretextbook.org/doc/guide/html/processing-CLI.html#cli-project-manifest-20, I see discussion of setting string parameters in project.ptx, and at https://pretextbook.org/doc/guide/html/processing-author-tools.html#processing-author-tools-6, I see directions to "set the 'author.tools' parameter to 'yes'".

But I don't see an example of the command to use in my project.ptx file to make this happen, and the couple attempts I have made have resulted in errors.  

Could someone share an example with me or point me to something I'm missing in the documentation?

Thanks,
Matt

There is a brief description of how to set a string parameter in the project.ptx file in this  Paragraph.  In Appendix O, if you look at the two listings after this  Paragraph, you will see how to set the author.tools parameter in both v1 and v2 project files.

Thanks Oscar.  That's just what I needed.
