[platypus-dev] scheduling Platypus scripts to run in the background

Hello,
Is there anyway you know of to schedule the launching of Platypus scripts via anacron or cron while keeping the app in the background? Even with the "Runs in the background" option checked in Platypus, the following:
/bin/bash -c "/usr/bin/open /Users/joe/backup_scripts/ Backup_Desktop.app"
which is how the invocation of the app appears in my anacrontab file, launches the app just fine, but into the foreground. There does not appear to be any command line options for /usr/bin/open to launch an app in the background, and for some reason apps launched this way seem to not respect the Platypus setting like manually invoked launches do. 


Any ideas?
