All commands which can take more than one path already do that. That's
why you have to add the parameter /notempfile if you use the
paths-separated-by-*. If you don't pass /notempfile, then TortoiseProc
expects the /path: param to point to a temporary file with a list of
paths, separated by newlines.
Notes:
* as you might already figure, the file with the list of paths is
treated as a _temporary_ file and gets _deleted_ after the command is
finished
* the file must be in UNICODE format (UTF-16). ANSI files won't work.
