launch and close other applications

[dbo33]

Hello,

it would be very useful to to able to launch & close other applications from B4PPC, so that we could develop new schedulers, tasklists, appli-swap, ....

Thank you

You can already do that using the Shell command (at least the opening of other programs, see the help file for more info). It really helps in writing nice programs !

Good luck with the programming !

Thank you for answer.
SHELL is OK for opening applis but how to close them ?
It would be great to get the process for each application running also...

I just saw that you can do this if you install Mortscript (a freeware program from http://www.sto-helit.de/) and run it with the shell command of Basic4ppc.

all the best Björn

Hi BjornF

thanks for your answer.
Good solution !!!!!!! :sign0098:
I will try it

But for more complex programs, it would be also usefull to manage directly the process numbers in Windows

Thanks
