One of the guys here wrote a little app to do just that. Create jobs from the command line.

I have forwarded the app to you. I dont know of any distribution restrictions on it.

This is what it can do:

tsch.exe command [option [...]]

Commands:

? - display this help
LIST - list all jobs
DELETE jobname - delete a job
RUN jobname - delete a job
ADD jobname addoption [...] - add a new job

ADD options:
/application: applicationname - applicaiton file name (use " " if necessary)
/parameters: parameters - command line parameters (use " " if necessary)
/workingdirectory: workingdirectory - where to start the application (use " " if necessary)
/maxruntime: maximum task run time (milliseconds)
/flags: taskflags - flags for the task

TASK_FLAG_INTERACTIVE (0x1)
TASK_FLAG_DELETE_WHEN_DONE (0x2)
TASK_FLAG_DISABLED (0x4)
TASK_FLAG_START_ONLY_IF_IDLE (0x10)
TASK_FLAG_KILL_ON_IDLE_END (0x20)
TASK_FLAG_DONT_START_IF_ON_BATTERIES (0x40)
TASK_FLAG_KILL_IF_GOING_ON_BATTERIES (0x80)
TASK_FLAG_RUN_ONLY_IF_DOCKED (0x100)
TASK_FLAG_HIDDEN (0x200)
TASK_FLAG_RUN_IF_CONNECTED_TO_INTERNET (0x400)
TASK_FLAG_RESTART_ON_IDLE_RESUME (0x800)
TASK_FLAG_SYSTEM_REQUIRED (0x1000)
