I want to wirte: Test.au3  -r    ;//-r for read the Passwort (testPass)

Spoiler

f $CmdLine[0] = 0 Then help()
If $CmdLine[1] = "/?" Then help()
If $CmdLine[1] = "?" Then help()

I don t now how to use that

Its not very secure way to keep your password, would recommend using encryption, here is a basic example of what you want to do, just compile the file as an exe and you can use -s or -r.

#NoTrayIcon
Local $sGetPwd = Null, $sSetPwd = Null
Local $g_sFilename = @ScriptDir & "\Filename.ini"

If $CmdLine[0] >= 1 Then
    $sSetPwd = _CmdGetValue("s") <> Null ? _CmdGetValue("s") : Null
    $bGetPwd = _CmdLine_Exists("r")
EndIf

If $sSetPwd <> Null Then IniWrite($g_sFilename, "Pass", "Password", $sSetPwd)
If $bGetPwd Then MsgBox(4096, "Password", IniRead($g_sFilename, "Pass", "Password", Null))

Func _CmdGetValue($sCmdLine, $vResult = Null)
    For $i = 1 To $CmdLine[0]
        If $CmdLine[$i] = "/" & $sCmdLine Or $CmdLine[$i] = "-" & $sCmdLine Or $CmdLine[$i] = "--" & $sCmdLine Then
            If $CmdLine[0] >= $i + 1 Then
                If StringLeft($CmdLine[$i + 1], 1) = "/" Or StringLeft($CmdLine[$i + 1], 1) = "-" Or StringLeft($CmdLine[$i + 1], 2) = "--" Then
                    Return $vResult
                Else
                    Return $CmdLine[$i + 1]
                EndIf
            EndIf
        EndIf
    Next
    Return $vResult
EndFunc

Func _CmdLine_Exists($sCmdLine)
   For $i = 1 To $CmdLine[0]
      If $CmdLine[$i] = "/" & $sCmdLine Or $CmdLine[$i] = "-" & $sCmdLine Or $CmdLine[$i] = "--" & $sCmdLine Then
         Return True
      EndIf
   Next
   Return False
EndFunc

what is the cmd command?

This is my first tie that I use that so sorry but I dosn t now how to make that right.

@Marius-Ligon

In the Help file, look at the section under "Using AutoIt", called "Command Line Parameters.  You will see how to get access parameters passed to your script.  ($CmdLine array and $CmdLineRaw).

Sorry, I don't understand your question.  Can you ask it in a different or more detailed way?

[Marius-Ligon]

@TheXman 

I have my cmd and i go to C:\test\1

test.au3 

I don´t now what I must write behind that 

[TheXman]

If you are asking how can you test it in the editor, then if you are using the full scite editor, you can hit Shift+F8 to enter parameters that you want to pass to your script.  If you have compiled your script, the you would pass parameters to it the way you would with any other console application.  How you process the command line is up to you.

If you want to run the .au3 file from the command line instead of a complled .exe, then go to the same section of the help file that I referenced earlier.  It shows you the syntax for running .au3 scripts.

@careca

Why did you need that -2 ?

$Result = StringRight($cmdlineRaw, StringLen($cmdlineRaw)-StringInStr($cmdlineRaw, '-s')-2)

 

[JLogan3o13]

READ...THE...HELP...FILE

[spudw2k]

To be fair, the help file doesn't say why the -2 is used in the specific line of code you made.

@Marius-Ligon  Perhaps you can try it with and without the -2 and see the difference for yourself?

Why did you need that -2 ?

In your defense, if you dont have much experience in this language, this might be confusing even after checking the help file.

So the stringright returns a number of characters from the right hand side of a string.

first parameter is the original string, the second is the count.

So in the count part we have the stringlen (lenght) of the original string minus the position of '-s', given by the stringinstr, minus 2 because we dont want to retrieve the '-s' or any bit of it.

So if you remove the -2 you get the 'S', a space, and the portion of the string you want.
