Bug Description

I use VisualWorks. To get it to run I need to open a Terminal window and execute $VISUALWORKS/bin/linuxx86_64/vwlinuxx86_64 "$VWPROJECTS/launchpad64.im". I cannot us a menu item or a launcher because the launcher assumes that there is no argument after the executable. Changing the menu and launcher so that flags and arguments could be added to the command would make it more useful.
