Found a solution to the original question.. it involves running it not through the shortcut since you can't append commands to them apparently (learn something every day) but instead creating a small script that launches the application with the patchme command added to the end of it.

So make a blank text document and put this in it:
Quote:
#!/bin/sh
/Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox -P default -no-remote &
|
Just replace the firefox path with the one to your eq app and add the patchme at the end of it.
