Is possible to directly start a program in guest by calling it with arguments from host?

Hi!

I want to ask if is possible to call start of virtual machine in host and start application in guest specified by arguments of calling command?

simply in one command anything like this:

"C:\vmplayer.exe" - "D:\VMware\windows7.vmx" -start "D:\VLC.exe"

what means this:

C:\vmplayer.exe = path to VMware Player executable

- D:\VMware\windows7.vmx = path to guest

-start = argument command

D:\VLC.exe = pathname in guest filesystem to program wanted to start

Thank you for each help, suggestion, reply or comments.
