mmalc said the same thing, and I tried looking in that one, but still got
nothing. Don't worry about it, though. I wrote some code to write the
input arguments out to a file.
Just for the record, Bjoern is correct. The Finder passes two arguments.
The first one is the complete command and path, i.e.
"Applications/MyApp.app/Contents/MacOS/MyApp". The second argument is a
process serial number, such as: "-psn_0_27394049".
So now I can fix my problem.
