If you need to send a message from app1 to app2, and app2 is already running,
you could use socket communication between them. Don't have time to pencil it
out, but maybe someone else will. If not, I'll do it tomorrow.

On Mac OS X, you can do it from the command line.
1) create a standalone app (named "Untitled1" in this example) that has this
stack script:
on startup
dispatch $1 to me
quit
end startup
on incoming
beep
end incoming
2) create a different stack with this BUTTON script:
on mouseUp
answer file "Pick the app:"
if it = empty then exit to top
get shell (it & "/Contents/MacOS/Untitled1 incoming")
put the result after msg
end mouseUp
3) click the button. It should start the "Untitled1" app and you should hear
the beep. At least it works here.
I haven't tried this on Windows, but I bet something similar would work there.

Is there any command that will allow me to pass a simple parameter to a
