Running Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS

In terminal mode executable would be run as:

../xpdp1 -i ../inp/maxwello.inp

Is there a way I can click on the xpdp1 executable in Xwindows and somehow pass the -i ../inp/maxwello.inp to it?

Thanks.

Not directly, no. You'd need to make a launcher (there are other guides too). You could either hard-code the path in or you could use something like zenity:

sh -c '../xpdp1 $(zenity --file-selection)'
