Thanks Micha for pointing this. I'll fix it. The idea extending
drag&dropping with Ctrl+Shift is also very good.

The workaround is, currently, to copy all selected filenames to
clipboard (using toolbar) and then insert them into gcmd cmdline. gcmd
merges selected multiple filenames with ' '.

I agree. How a relative path should be constructed?
