In the current buffer I have a list of file paths (one per line). I want set “args” to that file list.
How can I do this?
Thanks.

Explanation:
getline(1, line('$'))will return a list of lines in the current buffer (from the first (1) to the last (line('$')) line,map(getline(1, line('$')), 'fnameescape(v:val)')will escape all filenames in case they contain spaces or other special characters,join(...)will join the resulting list by inserting space between every two list items, then it will passed to anargscommand byexecute.
