This question is a followup to this question (and I assume several other) about embedding a download link in an HTML page. I need to create such page which will follow a successful purchase of a software using PayPal. The page contains several "tokens" such as "PayerID" and I wonder if there is a way to initiate a download but adding some command line arguments to it so when the downloaded file is clicked, it will be opened with these arguments. For example: if the file is "update.exe", and the argument is "Token=1234" it will be opened as "update.exe token=1234".

No.
The closest you could get would be for the server to generate (i.e. compile) a custom executable based on the data in the link.
