Command line options

[KXP]

Hi.

I need to make a console script which will be able to accept some command line options as its input and then compile it to exe with Aut2Exe (the 2nd part doesn't make any problems).

But I have no idea how to do it.

Please help me guys.

Thanks.

Something like this ?

If $Cmdline[0] Then
    For $_I = 1 To $Cmdline[0]
        Switch $Cmdline[$_I]
            Case '/?','-?','/help','-help'
                Exit MsgBox (0x40000, StringTrimRight ( @ScriptName, 4 ) & ' Help', 'Switches are:' & @LF _
                        & @LF & '/extract' _
                        & @LF & @TAB & 'Extract files to current directory' _
                        & @LF & '/x' _
                        & @LF & @TAB & '' _
                        & @LF & '/y' _
                        & @LF & @TAB & '' _
                        & @LF & '/z' _
                        & @LF & @TAB & '')
            Case '/x'

            Case '/y'

            Case '/z'

            Case Else
                Exit MsgBox ( 262144, 'Incorrect switch used', 'Command used:' & @LF & $CmdlineRaw & @LF & @LF & 'Use /? for the Switches available.' )
        EndSwitch
    Next
EndIf

Not trying to hijack this thread, but is it a typo or did you mean to code it like this and if so out of curiosity why?

Exit MsgBox ( 262144, 'Incorrect switch used', 'Command used:' & @LF & $CmdlineRaw & @LF & @LF & 'Use /? for the Switches available.' )

Don't worry about this, it's just to save space !

wakillon, Thank you very much!

Can I ask 1 more question?

I'm launching an application in console using AutoIt (Run function).

In some cases the application outputs a prompt to the console and if this prompt appears the script should send some data (input a string & press enter, I think could be done with ControlSend function).

So how can I wait for that prompt in my script?

I know this prompt and can specify it.

Thanks a lot.

A dos console ?

It would be better, if you post this part of your script !
