Re: Rescue Script Repository Thread- Share your scripts
Sorry about the double post but I figured I should ask this while I thought of it. Is there any way to get a cmd file script to show the info in the console as its running, not just showing the final output after its been run? I do have a couple scripts right now that run some pretty long processes, It'd be nice to see at least what step of the script it is on as its running, instead of just going on faith that its doing what its supposed to do. Also, just so you know, I'm writing these scripts for use by many people in our organization, not just me, so as I work on these I'd like to make them as user-friendly as possible, even if the users are only my fellow techies.26KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Rescue Script Repository Thread- Share your scripts
I know this thread's kind of old, but I'm working on some scripts of my own (might even post them here when I'm done) - I've noticed that the scripts run show results in the console, but I'm wondering if there's any way to get them to open and run the remainder of the cmd file in an actual command window. I'd like to do a menu of different options for working with a resource file, so I can't just transfer the menu as the resource because it already exists. Will running a "cmd.exe" from within the script open this up on the customer's computer or will it just be buggy and not run the script any farther (in my tests outside of LMI:R running cmd just lists a new command prompt but doesnt continue running the rest of the file until you type exit, something that isn't possible in the console.) in other words, can the script file "sample.cmd" open a true cmd window and run the rest of the script from there?26KViews0likes1Comment
