The short answer is that you can't.

If you create an object manually (without REXX), you'll notice that as soon
as you put in the name of the PM executable, all of the options are greyed
out, including the "start minimized" radio button.

There's no mechanism to force PM programs to start in any particular state,
so unless the program has its own "start minimized" setting, you're out of
luck.
