Can a service have command line arguments? Unix daemons are just regular programs in this regard, and many are written to rely on their command line as the primary way to modify their behavior. But the Invoker utility seems to provide no avenue to pass arguments to the newly installed service, and in fact when I hold my nose and enter the GUI (Control Panel|Services), there's no trace of arguments, either.
