NAME
     google-chrome - the web browser from Google

SYNOPSIS
     google-chrome [OPTION] [PATH|URL]

DESCRIPTION
     See the Google Chrome help center for help on using the browser.

	    <https://support.google.com/chrome/>

     This manpage only describes invocation, environment, and arguments.

OPTIONS
     Google  Chrome  has  hundreds  of	undocumented command-line flags that are
     added and removed at the whim of the developers.  Here, we  document  rela-
     tively stable flags.

     --user-data-dir=DIR
	    Specifies  the directory that user data (your "profile") is kept in.
	    Defaults to $HOME/.config/google-chrome  .	 Separate  instances  of
	    Google  Chrome must use separate user data directories; repeated in-
	    vocations of google-chrome will reuse  an  existing  process  for  a
	    given user data directory.

     --incognito
	    Open in incognito mode.

     --new-window
	    If PATH or URL is given, open it in a new window.

     --proxy-server=host:port
	    Specify  the  HTTP/SOCKS4/SOCKS5  proxy  server to use for requests.
	    This overrides any environment variables or settings picked via  the
	    options  dialog.   An individual proxy server is specified using the
	    format:

	      [<proxy-scheme>://]<proxy-host>[:<proxy-port>]

	    Where <proxy-scheme> is the protocol of the proxy server, and is one
	    of:

	      "http", "socks", "socks4", "socks5".

	    If the <proxy-scheme> is omitted, it defaults to "http".  Also  note
	    that "socks" is equivalent to "socks5".

	    Examples:

	      --proxy-server="foopy:99"
		  Use the HTTP proxy "foopy:99" to load all URLs.

	      --proxy-server="socks://foobar:1080"
		  Use the SOCKS v5 proxy "foobar:1080" to load all URLs.

	      --proxy-server="socks4://foobar:1080"
		  Use the SOCKS v4 proxy "foobar:1080" to load all URLs.

	      --proxy-server="socks5://foobar:66"
		  Use the SOCKS v5 proxy "foobar:66" to load all URLs.

	    It is also possible to specify a separate proxy server for different
	    URL types, by prefixing the proxy server specifier with a URL speci-
	    fier:

	    Example:

	      --proxy-server="https=proxy1:80;http=socks4://baz:1080"
		  Load https://* URLs using the HTTP proxy "proxy1:80". And load
	    http://*
		  URLs using the SOCKS v4 proxy "baz:1080".

     --no-proxy-server
	    Disables  the  proxy server.  Overrides any environment variables or
	    settings picked via the options dialog.

     --proxy-auto-detect
	    Autodetect proxy configuration.  Overrides any environment variables
	    or settings picked via the options dialog.

     --proxy-pac-url=URL
	    Specify proxy  autoconfiguration  URL.   Overrides	any  environment
	    variables or settings picked via the options dialog.

     --password-store=<basic|gnome|kwallet>
	    Set  the password store to use.  The default is to automatically de-
	    tect based on the desktop environment.  basic selects the built  in,
	    unencrypted  password  store.  gnome selects Gnome keyring.  kwallet
	    selects (KDE) KWallet.  (Note that KWallet	may  not  work	reliably
	    outside KDE.)

     --version
	    Show version information.

     As  a  GTK+  app, Google Chrome also obeys GTK+ command-line flags, such as
     --display.  See the GTK documentation for more:

	    <http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/stable/gtk-running.html>

	    <http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/stable/gtk-x11.html>

ENVIRONMENT
     Google Chrome obeys the following environment variables:

     all_proxy
	    Shorthand for specifying all of http_proxy, https_proxy, ftp_proxy

     http_proxy, https_proxy, ftp_proxy
	    The proxy servers used for HTTP,  HTTPS,  and  FTP.   Note:  because
	    Gnome/KDE  proxy settings may propagate into these variables in some
	    terminals, this variable is ignored (in preference for actual system
	    proxy settings) when running under Gnome or KDE.  Use  the	command-
	    line flags to set these when you want to force their values.

     auto_proxy
	    Specify  proxy  autoconfiguration.	 Defined  and empty autodetects;
	    otherwise, it should be an autoconfig URL.	But see above note about
	    Gnome/KDE.

     SOCKS_SERVER
	    SOCKS proxy server (defaults to SOCKS v4, also  set  SOCKS_VERSION=5
	    to use SOCKS v5).

     no_proxy
	    Comma separated list of hosts or patterns to bypass proxying.

FILES
     $HOME/.config/google-chrome
	    Default directory for configuration data.

     $HOME/.cache/google-chrome
	    Default   directory   for  cache  data.   (Why?   See  <http://stan-
	    dards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/latest/> .)
