Is there any way to get this information from within a command-line utility?


In my case, I have a command-line utility wrapped up in an application bundle, so I
really don't need any GUI stuff, but I thought I could use the Cocoa classes
to get the filename sent without launching a GUI.

In your class that's the NSApplication's delegate, implement the method

- (BOOL)application:(NSApplication *)sender openFile:(NSString
*)filename;
