Hello everybody,
Lurker's -1 on Karl's -1
Doesn't have Windows a limited command line length? I remember swearing
loudly trying to stick a lot of files in Perforce's "p4 add ..." because of
a command line length limit.
We poor people using Windows might want to use something like the
"@filelist" hacks seen in some programs. (If a supplied filename starts with
@ it is not the file to work on, but a list of files ...)
I happily write all the fancy "pop up the editor" junk in python and wrap it
round the tools I use - as long as I can feed all data to the tools without
getting insane. List of files is a nice feature in this case.

P.S.: If anybody needs an example how to pop up Notepad.exe and **WAIT** for
it
to close - I've got some code which does exactly that. (In Python, but using
normal Win32 APIs)
P.P.S.: HELP! HELP! I'm a Java/Unix/CVS man being held captive in a
VisualC/Windows/PVCS shop. At least they leave me my Python ...
