open: option requires an argument -- a
Usage: open [-e] [-t] [-f] [-W] [-n] [-g] [-h] [-b <bundle
identifier>] [-a <application>] [filenames]
Help: Open opens files from a shell.
By default, opens each file using the default application for
that file.
If the file is in the form of a URL, the file will be opened as
a URL.
Options:
-a Opens with the specified application.
-b Opens with the specified application bundle
identifier.
-e Opens with TextEdit.
-t Opens with default text editor.
-f Reads input from standard input and opens
with TextEdit.
-W, --wait-apps Blocks until the used applications are closed
(even if they were already running).
-n, --new Open a new instance of the application even
if one is already running.
-g, --background Does not bring the application to the
foreground.
-h, --header Searches header file locations for headers
matching the given filenames, and opens them.
I see when checking "open" on a 10.4.11the supported arguments list is
even shorter. On 10.4.11 only -e, -t, -f, -b, and -a are listed.

Harry,
For this build on a PPC 10.5.8 Stitch does not start PTBatcherGui.
This is what the console shows after specifying the output prefix
when initiating a Stitch.

Thanks for this output. It clarifies it all. The open on Leopard
doesn't support the --args statement.
My open says:
Usage: open [-e] [-t] [-f] [-W] [-R] [-n] [-g] [-h] [-b <bundle
identifier>] [-a <application>] [filenames] [--args arguments]
Help: Open opens files from a shell.
By default, opens each file using the default application for
that file.
If the file is in the form of a URL, the file will be opened
as a URL.
Options:
-a Opens with the specified application.
-b Opens with the specified application bundle
identifier.
-e Opens with TextEdit.
-t Opens with default text editor.
-f Reads input from standard input and opens
with TextEdit.
-R, --reveal Selects in the Finder instead of opening.
-W, --wait-apps Blocks until the used applications are
closed (even if they were already running).
--args All remaining arguments are passed in argv
to the application's main() function instead of opened.
-n, --new Open a new instance of the application even
if one is already running.
-g, --background Does not bring the application to the
foreground.
-h, --header Searches header file locations for headers
matching the given filenames, and opens them.
Can you issue the following command in the terminal on an existing
project?
open -b net.sourceforge.hugin.PTBatcherGUI /path/to/project/
whatever.pto
If that works can you then do a:
open -b net.sourceforge.hugin.PTBatcherGUI -a /path/to/project/
whatever.pto
and/or a:
open -b net.sourceforge.hugin.PTBatcherGUI /path/to/project/
whatever.pto -a
The first command should open PTBatchergui and the project to the
queue but I'm afraid that the second and third command won't work. I
have now been searching on Google and found that 10.6 supports for
the first time command line options to be fed to a bundle. This
would mean that on 10.5 and below the call needs to be changed to go
without the --args and switches.
But of course you never know so please try.
@Tiger users: please issue the command "open" in a terminal and
please copy the output into a mail.
Harry
