Modifying A Mac shortcut

I know this doesn't necessarily pertain to Amnesia or HPL for that matter. But it is a problem for me for releasing my mod.

I need to create a shortcut for Amnesia with the launch options

config/lacaza_main_init.cfg

Example for a PC's shortcut would be:
"C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\amnesia the dark descent\Amnesia.exe" config/lacaza_main_init.cfg

The target .exe inside inside the quotes, with the launch options outside.

How do I make a shortcut for mac users?

RE: Modifying A Mac shortcut

Could be something like:

open /Users/Midget/Library/Application\ Support/Steam/SteamApps/common/amnesia\ the\ dark\ descent/Amnesia.app/Contents/MacOS/Amnesia --args -config/lacaza_main_init.cfg

Not sure though
You'd have to run that through Terminal

Mac doesn't have any bat/run file to run terminal codes directly?
For linux, it could be an easy python/perl(or else) script to directly open, but for Mac, I have no experience.

As far as I know, I don't think so. :/ But I don't have much experience with the Terminal, so don't take my word for it. xD

You would also make an Alias (Alias is Shortcut for Macs) of your Amnesia application, then open the Alias in a program to edit it and add launch options.
