Perhaps a "-noboot" option would be useful, to disable the one-time boot -- you could then have "Boot with SimCoupe" and "Open with SimCoupe" commands in the file association, if you wanted to. I'll make a patch for this, if people like the idea. Also, on platforms that support standard output, "-help" and "-version" would be cool, as well as warning messages for unregonised options.
