hammer startup .bat

Does anyone use one? All the clicking with starting through the steam window is bugging me. I use one for hl2dm and all I have to do is enter password, would be nice to get hammer to run like that.

i would really like this too, i've tried just using hammer.exe but it doesn't work. how might one make a .bat file?

ok I did my own homework :)
Here's a line for a .bat, sub your drive letter

"I:\Program Files\Steam\steam.exe" -applaunch 211 -runhammer

Same line works for a shortcut. With a .bat you can add other commands like I do with hl2dm if you feel the need

start "" /low "I:\Program Files\Steam\steam.exe" -applaunch 320 -console -heapsize 512000 -refresh 75 -novid -autoexec
