[Conkeror] command line parsing

[Jeremy Maitin-Shepard]

You can force xulrunner/Conkeror to not reuse an existing instance by passing the
-no-remote flag.  It will then interpret any -P argument that you
specify.  I don't know, however, of a way to direct a remote command
to a particular existing process by use of a -P argument or something
similar.

There is a workaround, though, that I use myself for testing Conkeror:
you can change the application Name= field in application.ini; that name
determines the subdirectory of ~/.conkeror.mozdev.org/ that the profiles
will be placed, and also is used to check for an existing instance, so
as long as two Conkeror instances use different application.ini files
(with different Name values), there will be no problem, and you don't
have to worry about the unreliable -P option.

A convenient way to do this is to create a new directory for your second
Conkeror instance, copy application.ini and change the Name field, but
for every other file in the conkeror root directory, just create a
symlink from this new directory to your actual Conkeror directory
(e.g. a git working directory).
