Originally created by @wayne-scott on GitHub (Mar 10, 2020).

The split-pane section in the UsingCommandlineArguments document says that there is a [--target,-t target-pane] parameter. However if you try to use it you get a windows error box stating "The following argument was not expected: -t".

I've not looked into the code base in great detail, but from looking at this section I'm assuming that this parameter hasn't been implemented yet.

You're absolutely right that this hasn't been implemented yet. I copy-pasta'd that section from the spec, then forgot to remove that arg. 🤦‍♂

Thanks for catching this!

@zadjii-msft, just a quick followup question. I want to keep track of when this will be implemented but couldn't find an issue to follow. The best I could find was #4632, but it didn't mention this particular parameter. Can you point me in the right direction?
