On Win 7...
The latest code on github seems to result in a wxWidgets call to LPTSTR WINAPI
GetCommandLine(void);
This results in popping a dialog complaining about command options. On Linux
this does not happen. Looks like wxWidgets is trying to use this call to deal
with unicode, but it unfortunately bypasses the Haskell argument mechanism and
grabs everything including +/-RTS and passes it to wxWidgets for consideration.
Perhaps wxHaskell should manage the arguments and strip off any arguments that
are not destined for wxWidgets, or at least let the Haskell code intercept and
manage the problem.
Is there some way to effect the wxHaskell initialization so that it prevents
this call, so that an wxHaskell application running on Windows 7 can accept
command line arguments properly?
I handling initialization with a start call within Haskell. Perhaps there is an
alternate approach I am unaware of.

Not knowing the code base, and by searching, it seems it is probably calling
this wxWidgets code:
static bool
wxMSWEntryCommon(HINSTANCE hInstance, int nCmdShow)
{
// remember the parameters Windows gave us
wxSetInstance(hInstance);
#ifdef __WXMSW__
wxApp::m_nCmdShow = nCmdShow;
#endif
// parse the command line: we can't use pCmdLine in Unicode build so it is
// simpler to never use it at all (this also results in a more correct
// argv[0])
// break the command line in words
wxArrayString args;
const wxChar *cmdLine = ::GetCommandLine();
if ( cmdLine )
{
args = wxCmdLineParser::ConvertStringToArgs(cmdLine);
}
