Are .st files just passed to the image? i.e. `start-image.sh --name ClaudeTweak --port 9877 --morphic --boot-script /tmp/bootscript_smoke.st` . How can I trap; this? thx in advance.

Hi folks



The working theory is that the --boot-script arguments are passed to the image w/o VM influence at all.





The open question is what handles the *.st script on image launch...





On a 64-bit Squeak 6.1 Cog VM, passing a trailing script argument after the image name (per --help's 'first argument normally names a Squeak script') results in Smalltalk getSystemAttribute: 2 correctly returning the path, but nothing in the image appears to file it in automatically
