launch and return quickly?

[gning]

I sometimes launch EmEditor on files from inside another fine shareware app, Beyond Compare. The problem is, Beyond Compare won’t resume until EmEditor returns. I’ve settled for setting Beyond Compare to run the command CMD /C EmEditor “\%f”. This makes an extra window flash up momentarily.

Is there a better way to start EmEditor and/or pass a file to it, and then return immediately to the caller?

You could use ShellExec

ShellExec “C:PathtoEmeditor.exe” “\%f”

Although NirSoft’s NirCmd is a more useful tool, it could also do that small task.
