Rhino shell provides the load function which you can use to call scripts 
from other files, see http://mozilla.org/rhino/shell.html . You can add 
support for all shell functions to your application if you replace call 
to Context.initStandardObjects(null) in your code by
new org.mozilla.javascript.tools.shell.Global(cx), like in the following 
modification of examples/RunScript.java from the Rhino distribution.

import org.mozilla.javascript.*;

public class RunScriptEx {
     public static void main(String args[])
         throws JavaScriptException
     {
         // Creates and enters a Context. The Context stores information
         // about the execution environment of a script.
         Context cx = Context.enter();
         try {
             // Initialize the standard objects (Object, Function, etc.)
             // This must be done before scripts can be executed. Returns
             // a scope object that we use in later calls.
             //Scriptable scope = cx.initStandardObjects(null);
             // Use shell scope instead
             Scriptable scope = new 
org.mozilla.javascript.tools.shell.Global(cx);
	

             // Collect the arguments into a single string.
             String s = "";
             for (int i=0; i < args.length; i++) {
                 s += args[i];
             }

             // Now evaluate the string we've colected.
             Object result = cx.evaluateString(scope, s, "<cmd>", 1, null);

             // Convert the result to a string and print it.
             System.err.println(cx.toString(result));

         } finally {
             // Exit from the context.
             Context.exit();
         }
     }
}
