Explorer.exe command line options : selecting multiple files

This answer from stackoverflow might help. It would appear that it's not easily done (or even possible?) from the command line.

    From the command line, is possible to launch Windows Explorer (explorer.exe) and automatically select multiple files in it?

    I know how to launch it and select a single file (see doc):

    explorer /select,"C:\myfile.text"

    But, I can't find how to select a list of files.

    Is it possible to do this entirely (or at all) from the command line?  You seem to be presenting a GUI-based solution. Please do not respond in comments; edit your answer to make it clearer and more complete.
