On Windows, I had two shortcuts--one each for a profile. It became my workflow and annoyed me when I couldn't do that on a Mac. I didn't always want my work profile to open by mistake, check into systems, etc. when I only wanted the home one, for instance.
Why couldn’t you do that on a Mac? You can edit the shortcut path and add the flags and parameters there.
I was never able to figure a way to do this. I could link to the executable but not modify the shortcut to allow for flags.
