Custom Query

It seems like some people, many of whom are overseas, are having trouble sending/controlsending because of characters getting inverted or sometimes just not making it. ControlSetText seems to be a good workaround when it's able to be used, but since that isn't always an option, I thought this might be something that could be incorporated.

Basically, have an option to use Send or ControlSend to copy/paste strings rather than send individual keystrokes. It would eliminate case/omission issues for those that have them.

When determining a control by class, id and text the text is not considered for identifying the control.

Example:

1. Open notepad.
2. Select to replace a string, so that the replacement dialog is open.
3. The code:

$title = "Ersetzen" ; replace dialog
$cID = "[CLASS:Button;ID:2;TEXT:Nonsense]" ; cancel button with invalid text
MsgBox(0, "Debug", ControlCommand($title, "", $cID, "IsVisible", ""))

--> the button is found and the result is "1".

I have several scripts that use Run extensively, and look for processes using specific command line options (such as robocopy processes running against a particular source). While I know checking my command lines with regular expressions is possible, it would be helpful if we had a function we could call that would return an array exactly like $CmdLine from a passed string.

Since the code is already there, presumably you could just expose that code as a function, and use it for actual $CmdLine parsing as well, meaning little or no duplicate code.

Thanks for your time.
