For a nrmal user/mapper Darkmod and Darkradiant shortcuts:
 
    TDM - E:\Darkmod\TheDarkMod.exe +set com_allowConsole 1 +set r_fullscreen 0 +set fs_currentfm myfm
    DR - "C:\Program Files\DarkRadiant\DarkRadiant.exe" fs_game=darkmod/fms/myfm
 
If your Svn user:
 
    TDM - D:\TdmSvn\TheDarkMod.exe +set com_allowConsole 1 +set r_fullscreen 0 +set fs_currentfm myfm
    DR - "C:\Program Files\DarkRadiant\DarkRadiant.exe" fs_game=tdmsvn/fms/myfm
 
+set com_allowConsole 1 - this enable the console by pressing just the tolda buton
+set r_fullscreen 0 - this fporces TDM to run in a window, which for me is usefull as I run TDM and DR at the same time.
+set fs_currentfm - in your FMS folder you will have the name of your mission/fm that youre working on (eg. myfm, what every you have called it)
