Start Firefox from CMD window + passing single parameter to multiple URLs
I know I can open multiple tabs in Firefox from a CMD window with "Firefox.exe URL1 URL2 URL3".
What I want to do is pass a common parameter to each URL, ultimately putting all this into a simple CMD script suffixed with the common parameter. Any suggestions?

What language does a CMD script use??
Firefox doesn't, as far as I know, allow you to pass a single URL in two parts, so your script will need to append the parameters to the URLs.
CMD = Windows command line

Right, but were you limiting yourself to DOS batch file commands from the 90s, or would you use VBScript (like .vbs / .wsh), JScript, PowerShell, etc.?
Anyway, that was just curiosity. A better site for Windows scripting tips would be something like http://superuser.com/ or another http://stackexchange.com/ community.
Actually, I'm looking to identify a 'common' cross-platform shell script-type solution that would be used on Windows/Linux/OSX with minimal modification. No VBS. The generic form would be
firefox.exe URL1 URL2 URL3 "argument parameters"
An example use case would be to pass a common search argument to three different search websites within a single Firefox browser session. The "argument parameters" would be directly appended to the the URL - for example, appending a single search parameter to multiple search engines simultaneously.
