title: how to pass parameters to tortoiseproc.exe via file?
body: <p>I am programmatically generating a command to be submitted to cmd.exe using Runtime.getRuntime.exec() from java.</p>
  
  <p>The command is tortoiseproc ignore command of the form </p>
  
  <pre><code>tortoiseproc /command:ignore /path:file1*file2*file3*...................filen
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>As you can see, the path parameter takes a number of files and problem occurs when this string exceeds a certain length approx. 8197 characters as documented in microsoft KB for cmd.exe.</p>
  
  <p>The workaround there says that modify the program so that it accepts the parameters from a file rather than from the commandline string. Does anybody know how to pass parameters to tortoiseproc.exe via file?</p>
