File List Within Text File

If one has a list of files in a .txt file, is there any way one can instruct TextPad to open them all ?

(Once again a workspace file was claimed to have an unexpected error, and I had to open the file and edit out all but the file list to recreate my previous situation :()

OK this has become of academic interest only.
With generous pasting of "#include " and lots of right clicking, I seem (hope) to be back where I was previously.
Not an elegant solution though :)

Search for open all files in file in the help and choose Command Line Parameters:
Command Line Parameters

@filename
Open all the files that are listed, one per line, in the specified file.
