Re^2: interactive command session possible?

BrowserUk,

Awesome suggestion. I'm going to try this first chance, but from a glance it looks pretty sound. So long as it accepts the keys, all it should take is some tweaking to the sleep value. Thanks!!!

So long as it accepts the keys, SendKeys() can generate every possible character including Unicode, along with all of the non-characters keys such as the "Windows" and "Context menu" keys. all it should take is some tweaking to the sleep value. The sleep is there just to give the program time to start and display its window before the keystrokes are sent. The timing might be optimised by using WaitWindow() instead.
