Using an old Mac Beta .app folder, I found an extra option in the Info.plist.

That string helped me find the right options/arguments to use with the cider application.
For example
-
/Applications/City\ of\ Heroes.app/Contest/MacOS/cider -- cohupdater.exe -ps xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx- This seems to perform the same action as clicking on City of Heroes.app in the Applications folder.
- So I tried
cider -- cohupdater.exe -covand got the live updater, and after patching and launching client gave me a CoV skinned login screen. - So we can launch from terminal, yay.
- But what about the test server?
- cider is a fork of wine. Wine uses a flat text file for the Windows registry.
- So we open /Applications/City of Heroes.app/Contents/Resources/Preferences/user.reg and find the /HKLM/User settings.
- Turns out COHTEST and COH uses the same directory, C:\\coh
- So if I launch Training Room from the command prompt
cider -- cohupdater.exe -testit will overwrite my live directory with training room
