?   Just a silly question.  Is it possible to specify a filename on the "Emacs"
?   command line like it is with normal emacs ?
You can but it won't read the file into the buffer (Emacs just
launches the front end, which in turn calls emacs but does not seem to
pass along arguments). Once you get used to the fact
thatmouse-selected regions are not highlighted (as in emacs running
under X), it certainly beats using emacs in a terminal window.
