Backup using EXP

I am using EXP to do my database backups.

What I want to know is if EXP can take parameters, and where to find the parameter list. I have quickly searched through all the documentation I have, and could not find anything.

The reason I want to use the parameters is to schedule the backups.

Are there any other better ways to do the backup? The reason why EXP is used is because sometimes Oracle locks some files up and make the normal front-end backup method fail.
