For a one-time solution, I suggest the same, but if you need to do it
often, you could write a DOS program which reads the contents of an
arbitrary textfile and uses DOS API calls to execute another program with
the parameters listed in the file (which may contain arbitrary non-zero
characters). I think that would work.
