Not when I do *prog* but when I do:

   >  DATAFILE arg arg arg arg arg

it launches the proper 'open' app for that datafile, but I don't see how 
to pass the args through [e.g, for a .jpg file I might want to do:
   picture.jpg /print
which will launch my jpg viewer, but not get the 'print' arg through to 
it to get the picture printed.
