Default command-line access to current settings

I would like to be able to modify the current Limewire properties via a script.

For instance, I hate interrupting people when they're in the middle of a long upload. So, if I could update LW from the command-line, I would create a batch file to "disconnect" (stop advertising) and set Available-Slots=1. Then, I'd use the AT timer to run the script about 2 or 3 hours before I return from work. This way, by the time I return home, most of the people who were in the middle of an upload will have finished.

I'm sure there are many other uses, too, but this is the primary need for me!

P.S. I know this sounds like the "Exit after transfers" option but that doesn't work for me anymore (because of queueing?), and that has nothing to do with the need to time/script the properties.
