He is probably thinking about analog of possibility found in
Windows - ability to set command line args in shortcut (alias).

(who still uses CW's "ccommand" from time to time.)

.. well, no .. i'm thinking about how argc/argv has been a standard way to pass options into apps, or at least C-based apps, since forever, and how it doesn't make any sense that i can use C in Apple-land, but not argc/argv, standardly, where i need to.

i do -not- want to change my args into preferences, just to be apple'ized, because my code runs on more than just OSX, but if thats the absolute answer from the barrel of technocratic wisdom that is the OSX runtime spec, then so ripe and sour be the apples upon which i must munch ..

can i be sure that there are -no- ways to get argc/argv from a the bundle .plist?
