==Example: execute a batch file with command line arguments==
Another use case could be executing batch files. We have a batch file ''E:\ProcessData.bat'' that processes the data of the text file ''MyData.csv'' in the working directory "E:\". If there is a problem we want to specify a timeout of 30 seconds for this processing step to avoid blocking the workflow for a long time.
