Add launch arguments to start download from CLI or other apps #5

Would it be possible to add launch-arguments to the app, so downloads could be started from command line or other apps?

Supporting arguments would be the first step, registering a protocol for easy start from UWP apps would also be highly appreciated.

I have an app that can - aside other things - download MPEG files. For playlists (M3U8) I have not planned to add support myself. Here it would be great if I could simply launch OnionMedia and hand over the link of the stream to be downloaded. (If onionMedia is not installed, the store would even suggest downloading it in case of an app-specific protocol being registered in the app manifest.)

This is planned and will be implemented in time, the main focus is currently on the cross-platform ports.
