title: How to close command windows with Java
body: <p>Each time I use <code>Runtime.exec("cmd /c start....")</code> I am opening a cmd window. I would like to create a more seamless application by closing each previous cmd window. How can I do this?</p>
  
  <p>If anyone knows of a better way to run a series of commands in the same cmd window rather than opening new ones each time I execute a command, please let me know.</p>
