I started new branch. First step was made - FSTHost can now connect to nsmd if I manually set NSM_URL. There is one problem - and I suspect your answer , but will try ask anyway. nsmd call aplication by it executable name , without params ? Is there any workaround for provide command line params ? FSTHost always require at least one param == plugin name. I try to avoid this anyway, but I'm just curious.
