Is there a way to either generate an icon, or change the settings so that when I open the file, it goes straight to ask for participant id? Under OSX, what you can do is start the script via command line, passing the participant and group ID directly via parameters. That should fire up the script directly with the provided IDs instead of opening it in the editor first. I.e. in the terminal app, do something like "/Applications/Inquisit.app" "~/yourscripts/yourscriptfile.iqx" -s 23 -g 2 to launch yourscriptfile.iqx with subject ID 23 and group ID 2.
