How to run MaxQuant in command line mode?

Bioinformatics Asked on August 19, 2021

MaxQuant is a software package for mass spectroscopy and proteomics. There is a windows version and a linux version. To run on linux you have to use a program that is called mono. I think, it is developed by Microsoft, which I find quite nice from them. I installed mono on Linux and started MaxQuant.

mono MaxQuant.exe

The documentation claims it is for running MaxQuant in commandline mode, though a GUI is started anyway. How can I start the program in commandline mode to perform batch analysis? I think, there is not enough information given on the web-page.
