I checked the user manual and learned about the Notepad++'s specific environment variables, thank you for the reminder!

Further to what Alan posted, the online users manual lists the variables you can use in Notepad++'s Run dialog, which includes $(CURRENT_DIRECTORY) .

That is the only part that is unique to Notepad++. Other than that, what Alan showed you was just standard cmd.exe syntax (as documented by microsoft).
