Agent Applications and launchd

Greetings cocoa-devs!

I have an agent application (ie, an app that runs in the background and has LSUIElement set to 0 via the apps info.plist). This app is started, stopped and otherwise controlled via a preference pane. I would like to use launchd to start the agent app whenever i log in. Using the excellent Lingon (http://lingon.sourceforge.net/) I tried to create a simple launch agent. Unfortunately, I'm not sure what command i'm supposed to use to start my agent app. I tried using the "open" command but that does not work. I also tried just entering the path the executable as my command but that also does not work.

Does anyone know how I can start this agent app via launchd?

Many thanks,
Keith R. Alperin
