josm: Launch JOSM in maximized mode.

josm

$ josm --maximize

try on your machine

The command "josm --maximize" is used to open the JOSM (Java OpenStreetMap) editing software with the main window automatically maximized to fit the entire screen.

JOSM is a popular software used for editing and contributing to the OpenStreetMap project, which is an open-source mapping platform. By default, when you launch JOSM, it opens in a normal-sized window that may not occupy the entire screen.

By adding the command-line argument "--maximize" after the "josm" command, you are instructing the software to start with its main window maximized. This means that JOSM will open in fullscreen mode, utilizing the maximum available space on your screen.

This command is particularly useful if you prefer to work with a larger editing area or if you have a high-resolution display. However, it's important to note that the availability and functioning of this command may vary based on the operating system you are using.
