_ACTION

The _ACTION global variable stores the name of the action to be performed on this execution run. As an example, if this command line was used to launch Premake...

$ premake4 vs2005

...then _ACTION will be set to "vs2005". If there is no action (for instance, if the command was premake4 /help) this variable will be nil.
