how see dos messages

[MetalSpongebob]

Hi,I had an idea,write a program with GUI to manage the dos...a "frontend"

Is an good idea,I create the gui with buttons,each button with a function that works with _rundos("namefunction").

But I can only call the command with _rundos,to complete that program I need that informations of the dos commands are displayed in my gui program.How can display information (like the exaple)in the gui?

Example with dos command "Tree c:\" (once used displays the structure of directories)

STDOutRead()

sorry but I tryed

_rundos("tree c:\")

stdoutread("cmd")

and dont work...dont understand

[picaxe]

Don't know if it works with _RunDos. It certainly does with Run as per example from AutoIt help

#include <Constants.au3>
$foo = Run(@ComSpec & " /c tree c:\", @SystemDir, @SW_HIDE, $STDERR_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD)
$line = ""
While 1
    $line = StdoutRead($foo)
    If @error Then ExitLoop
    FileWrite("c:\test.txt", $line)
Wend
RunWait("notepad.exe c:\test.txt", "")
FileDelete("c:\test.txt")

Thak you for help,but your code doesn't work(script remain in execution,but without do nothing)

I need to display in a windows or other a command dos like "tree" regardless the method(see screenshot at begin of topic)

It works for me. If you have a lot of folders in c:\ it could take a long time.

This is faster

#include <Constants.au3>
$foo = Run(@ComSpec & " /c tree c:\", @SystemDir, @SW_HIDE, $STDERR_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD)
$line = ""
While 1
    $line &= StdoutRead($foo)
    If @error Then ExitLoop
Wend
ClipPut($line)  
Run("notepad.exe", "")
WinWaitActive("Untitled -", "")
Send("^v")

Try with this, it is a prototype but it works:

enter your dos command in the inputbox and then click on button1

to see the output in the editbox

Bye
