Hi,

Is there a way I can run a dos command from AHK? I looked through the documentation and this forum, but couldn't get a correct answer.

I'm trying to do the same as in dos and reading in the contents of the listing to the clipboard ...

"dir /b /s *.mp3 > file.txt" (without the file.txt intermediate step actually)

Thanks for any help.

I am trying to do something similar to what the dir command does in Windows command line, but with Autohotkey.

I need to go thru a dir and any sub dirs and export the path,filename, and modification date of any .jpg files.

I created a thread asking this question, but what would be the windows command line string to use to do this? This may help me with my Autohotkey script.

Thanks.
