GUICtrlRead - to get the info from inputboxes

open cmd

Send - send commands to cmd window (be sure to keep active that window or send will fail)

Use Koda (SciTE - Tools - Koda) to design your GUI. After that use the help to read about commands.

#include <ButtonConstants.au3>
#include <EditConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)
#Region ### START Koda GUI section ### Form=
$Form1 = GUICreate("Form1", 156, 105, 193, 125)
GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, "Form1Close")
$Button1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Button1", 40, 64, 75, 25, 0)
GUICtrlSetOnEvent(-1, "Button1Click")
$Input1 = GUICtrlCreateInput("Input1", 16, 24, 121, 21)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
#EndRegion ### END Koda GUI section ###

While 1
    Sleep(100)
WEnd

Func Button1Click()
    Run("cmd.exe")
    Sleep(1000)
    Send(GUICtrlRead($Input1))
EndFunc
Func Form1Close()
    Exit
EndFunc

OH MY GOD!!!

cheers man

i've been playing around with it and getting my head around it

i'm nearly done with my program

only 1 bug, when i run it, it maxes out my cpu :S

once again, thanks man.

Maxing the CPU usage is a known issue when you don't have any Sleep in your main loop.

In my example if you comment the Sleep(100) line it will bring your CPU to 100%.
