[Twisted-Python] passing command line args to twistd daemons

[Garry Hodgson]

i've got an application (invoked via: twistd -noy fpc.py) that i'd
like to use for multiple purposes by passing command line arguments.
when i do so, twistd objects that they are invalid arguments.  i'd
hoped for some magic arg that partitions the args into twistd
arguments and app arguments, something like:

    twist -noy fpc.py -- -x -y -z

but no such luck.

so, is there a way to accomplish this?  if not, what is the
preferred mechanism for customizing an application's
behavior at startup time?

thanks
