AFAIK, %comspec% only works with ASCII.
What string you wanna write to the shell?
| Code: | | Run, %comspec% /k /v find "BoBo" "c:\My very long path\*.txt" |

Perhaps make it literal? `"

- Quote marks only need to be escaped in expressions, not commands.
- Literal quote marks in expressions are written as "", not `". The reason is that escape sequences (with `back-tick) are resolved when the script loads, whereas quote marks in expressions are parsed every time the expression is evaluated.
Btw, I also tried {Asc 34}, but it uses an Alt+NNNN combination, which apparently only works for the active window. (In other words, it works with Send but not ControlSend.) |

| I have no reason to think this will work any better, but just for the heck of it, try +' (Shift+Single-Quote). |

I though using the shift button would solve all my troubles. But ney, life is not that easy! Using shift has been hugely unreliable. More than 50% of the time 2 is sent instead of ". I don't know why.
Do you brilliant guys have any more ideas? |

How to send { or } from a variable ?
| Code: | Script := TEST { TEST }
transform,bracket1,chr,123
transform,bracket2,chr,125
_bracket1 := "%bracket1%"
_bracket2 := "%bracket2%"
StringReplace, Script, Script, {, %_bracket1%, All
StringReplace, Script, Script, }, %_bracket2%, All
Loop, Parse, Script, `n, `r
ControlSend, , %A_LoopField%{Enter}, ahk_pid %PID% |
this code sends the variable name inside percent signs. |

Send, %Send% |

Thanks DJ! Unfortunately I haven't been able to get that to work.
I hoped using Sean's StdOutput function would work
| Code: |
Runas, Admin, Pass
sCmd = NET stop "VMWare NAT Service"
sWork =
sInput =
CreatePipe(hStdInRd , hStdInWr ) ; Create a pipe for StdIn
CreatePipe(hStdOutRd, hStdOutWr) ; Create a pipe for StdOut
SetHandleInformation(hStdInRd ) ; make the handle hStdInRd inheritable to a child process, the console app
SetHandleInformation(hStdOutWr) ; make the handle hStdOutWr inheritable to a child process, the console app
pid := CreateProcess(sCmd, sWork) ; Create the console app without creating a console window
StdInput( sInput , hStdInRd , hStdInWr ) ; complete the StdIn
StdOutput(sOutput, hStdOutRd, hStdOutWr) ; complete the StdOut
MsgBox, % sOutput
|
It almost worked! It sent " correctly. BUT... the cmd command won't work without admin rights. And I haven't been able to get Runas to work in Vista .
More ideas? All I want to do is send " to a cmd window... harder than it seemed  |
