Or it can be done by sending keypresses directly to TeXmacs's window:

xvkbd -window TeXmacs -text "\\ex(open-file \"$1\")\\r"

(open-file "$1") is just an example, I don't know the exact command.

The command-line switch would probably be better though, as it would
work even when TeXmacs is in some particular input mode.

This I leave up to other TeXmacsers
