 If you've come from another distribution such as RetroPie (or you've just been around for a long time) you might be familiar with [[https://github.com/Aloshi/EmulationStation/tree/unstable#configuring|EmulationStation's command line arguments]]. You'll notice there's no real way to implement these arguments with the version of EmulationStation included in Batocera, unless you're willing to re-compile the entirety of Batocera.
-Well no more! As of v32 Batocera now includes the ability to accept user-defined custom arguments for ES at launch. All you have to do is add the appropriate `es.customargs=--mycommand` key to `/userdata/batocera.conf`.
