Launch with non-file argument(s)

Any way to launch an app with an argument which is *not* a filename,
and not block?
I can get this to work with the shell function, except that it is
blocking (the stack stalls until the other app quits), which is not
acceptable.
I tried to get this to work with the launch statement, except that it
complains that the document does not exist.
I need this to work cross-platform (I could, of course, have separate
cases for different platforms -- that doesn't bother me if it works;
It looks like "start" might be used under Windows? What about OS X and
*NIX?).
