Command line

How to open two files in notepad++ in different views using command line?

For example :
Open C:\temp\input.txt & C:\temp\output.txt using a command line and move the output file to OTHER View

Basically I am looking for command line argument to use the option ( MOVE to OTHER VIEW)

Sorry for the misunderstanding…
I could not found a command-line for that, but you can load Session files…
A session file is a XML file with this structure:

<NotepadPlus>
    <Session activeView="1">
        <mainView activeIndex="0">
            <File firstVisibleLine="0" xOffset="0" scrollWidth="288" startPos="0" endPos="0" selMode="0" lang="XML" encoding="-1" filename="C:\file1.xml" backupFilePath="" originalFileLastModifTimestamp="1438295994" />
        </mainView>
        <subView activeIndex="0">
            <File firstVisibleLine="0" xOffset="0" scrollWidth="288" startPos="0" endPos="0" selMode="0" lang="XML" encoding="-1" filename="C:\file2.xml" backupFilePath="" originalFileLastModifTimestamp="1438295994" />
        </subView>
    </Session>
</NotepadPlus>

Files in “other view” (at right) are inside <subView> tag.
You can open it with a command-line such as this:
notepad++.exe -openSession "MySession.xml"
