Notes:
-
File or folder names with spaces in should be surrounded by double-quote marks (" ")
-
In addition to the above, a folder name can be sent to TextCrawler with no switches, to enable usage with Windows features such as SendTo
-
A batch file (.txc extension only) can also be sent to TextCrawler with no switches.

Run a batch script in replace mode, closing the program upon completion.
TextCrawler.exe /b C:\Data\MyBatch.txc /r /c
