- '''command_line''':: command-line arguments to be passed to the worker program.  '''wrapper''' itself may be passed command-line arguments (specified in the [WorkGeneration#templates input template]); these are passed to each worker program after those specified in the job file.
- '''weight''':: the contribution of each task to the overall fraction done is proportional to its weight (floating-point, default 1).  For example, if your job has tasks A and B, and A uses 100 times more CPU time than B, set A.weight=100 and B.weight=1.
- '''checkpoint_filename''':: the name of the checkpoint file used by the app, if any.  When this is modified, the wrapper assumes that a checkpoint has been completed and notifies the core client.

 The job file can specify multiple tasks.
