ns-remote only understands the following:
-help
-display <dpy>
-remote <remote-command>
-id <window-id>
-raise
-noraise
but I would not expect it to be called directly. I would use a
modified version of the ns-open wrapper - if it saw an option
starting with a '-' other than the above it would just exec
a real netscape, otherwise it would call ns-remote.
