 Posted: Sat Jun 30, 2007 8:17 am Post subject: Remotely run a .exe through cell phone text |
 |
|
Basically I want something that: checks my email (sent by cell phone), if a certain email is recieved it will run a .exe. And maybe some interface as to what I can do with it (like stop the program).
Does anyone know what program to run alongside AutHotkey to make it work?
Any kind of push in the right direction is welcome. |

what email client are you using? you can set up filters in outlook (for example) that run an exe when a certain criteria is met, as well as have another exe for stopping it when you email a "stop code"....
Hmmm, you just gave me alot of ideas for monitoring my workload from my blackberry....

I have some code along these lines.. its not finished.. but the intention was to build up an email-checker (an addy i dont use anywhere but for this..) that I can send to via my SMS/email (phone), and then get responses back to my phone from the pc .. like weather etc etc
Maybe you can use parts of it for your project
Again.. its certainly not finished, so dont laugh you guys.. lol
You can put string filters in at the "Commands:" section, etc to branch off your exe run files.. and even work some blat in there to send confirmation back to your cell.
edit (Jul1/ 12:15e): worked on it more, now it actually works.. sorry about that !
edit again, added the "Hide" function to the getmail command
| Code: | #SingleInstance

Mainly a bump for the edit I did on the code..
But also.. does anyone know of an email grabber like getmail.. but that is in the .dll form (like blat).. having the command window pop up every nn seconds is sort of annoying to say the least.
Or, is there a way to suppress the command window ? |

Yeah, there is. Try:
Run, "getmail.exe" -u %UserName% -pw %password% -s %server% -delete, , Hide |

| Fantastic, ManaUser.. it didnt even occur to me that AHK itself would be able to suppress this. Thanks for the tip, works great now ! |

Absolutely you can, thats what we're all about here !
I got to playing around a little more, made a pop-up message thingy, so you can send transient to-do lists etc from the phone. Once you close the gui window though,its gone (easy enough to send to file tho..)
To send from SMS (or any email source, of course..) send your authorizing word plus the word "Popup" and then the actual text you want to display in the popup.
Put this in to replace the MsgBox line in the Commands: section
| Code: | ;--- A desktop PopUp window, for to-do lists etc
IfInString, AuthOps, PopUp
{
StringReplace, Message, AuthOps, PopUp
Gui,2: Add, Text,, %Message%
Gui,2: Show, W200 H200
}
;--- end of desktop popup |
