Preferably using Cocoa stuff, how can I create a separate process that
is independent of my current process (that is I don't want the process
to be a child of my current process) AND that can take command line
arguments. I looked at NSTask and NSWorkspace classes and they don't
look like they can handle this. I am new to the platform so I easily
could have missed something. Thanks in advance!

Why do you not want it to be a child? The reason I ask is that if your requirement is that the spawned process isn't terminated when the parent dies, then NSTask will suffice. Whilst processes it spawns are children, they're in a different process group and session and so don't die when the parent dies.
