# Command Line
This section documents the wezterm command line.
*Note that `wezterm --help` or `wezterm SUBCOMMAND --help` will show the precise
set of options that are applicable to your installed version of wezterm.*
wezterm is deployed with two major executables:
* `wezterm` (or `wezterm.exe` on Windows) - for interacting with wezterm from the terminal
* `wezterm-gui` (or `wezterm-gui.exe` on Windows) - for spawning wezterm from a desktop environment
You will typically use `wezterm` when scripting wezterm; it knows when to
delegate to to `wezterm-gui` under the covers.
If you are are setting up a launcher for wezterm to run in the Windows GUI
environment then you will want to explicitly target `wezterm-gui` so that
Windows itself doesn't pop up a console host for its logging output.
!!! note
`wezterm-gui.exe --help` will not output anything to a console when
run on Windows systems, because it runs in the Windows GUI subsystem and has no
connection to the console. You can use `wezterm.exe --help` to see information
about the various commands; it will delegate to `wezterm-gui.exe` when
appropriate.
