What command line switches exist for Notepad?
I found a few:
/A <filename> opens file as ANSI
/W <filename> opens file as Unicode
/P <filename> prints filename
Are there others?

/S suppresses the file-not-found prompt (you still get another prompt).
You can also use CMD.exe to control window size (and pipe input):
cmd.exe /c start /max notepad.exe c:/temp/toto.txt

Judging by this page: http://www.spic.net/hplx/windows/win3.0/disk1/setup.inf the /.setup switch was used during the automated setup of verrry old versions of Windows.
