Command to open file in SeaMonkey Composer


I can open a file in SeaMonkey from the command line:
Code:
seamonkey "filename.html"
However if I try to open it in composer:

Code:
seamonkey -composer "filename.html"
It still opens it in the web browser.

I've tried setting SeaMonkey to only open Composer on startup, which works fine, but the command to open the file in Composer still doesn't work.

Thanks

The correct command is:
Code:
seamonkey -editor "filename.html"
