In Linux, when I installed the open-source Chromium Browser I was able to run it from the command line using chromium-browser
with several useful options (such as specifying a proxy). I've switched to using a Mac and would like to do the same, but I get Unknown command 'chromium-browser'
.
How would I go about setting this up on a Mac?

To open Chromium from the CLI use
open -a chromium
open -a /Applications/Chromium.app/Contents/MacOS/Chromium
open /Applications/Chromium.app
(or the respective path to Chromium.app)/Applications/Chromium.app/Contents/MacOS/Chromium
#usually with some errors (e.g. "Error in event handler..." or some adm_helpers.cc/service_manager.cc errors)Comprehensive list of command line switches:
