title: Can someone tell me how to run a batch file from Notepad++
body: <p>I thought I could run a batch file from Notepad++ directly using nppexec by (or the built in run command) by typing CMD $(FULL_CURRENT_PATH)</p>
  
  <p>But since notepad++ HAS a CMD command (which open the cmd shell in the npp console) then it is not working.  So running the above command opens cmd shell in the npp console but does not run the batch file.  At that point I can run $(FULL_CURRENT_PATH) AND it will run the batch file.  But then I have to type exit to get our of command shell mode.</p>
  
  <p>Can someone tell me how to run the batch file I am current editing in npp directly in npp.  </p>
