Update: Version 1.1
New command for displaying a menu.


I wanted to make something based on this TCP/IP sample. Either this or a chat seemed like the obvious choices. I wanted to create something that is:
  1. Different enough from professional apps like RealVNC that it has it's own niche.
  2. Not too great a security risk or backdoor-like.
So this is what I cam out with.



All of the commands are on the server. So the client can only perform actions you specifically allow (in theory). It works somewhat like the Simple Mouse Gesture script in that you create new commands by adding labels to be bottom of the server script. Without further ado...

Client Script
Code:
;AHK Remote Client v1.1

#SingleInstance Force
#NoEnv
SendMode Input

NetworkAddress = 127.0.0.1 ;=local machine
NetworkPort    = 8257
PromptForAddy  = 0         ;Allows the user to supply another address if desired.
TestTimout     = 1000      ;Blank means don't pre-test the address.
MaxDataLength  = 4096      ;Longest message that can be recieved.
MaxGuiRows     = 10
ButtonSize     = 128       ;Blank means auto.

Notice that the last label has a comment after it, this prevents it from becoming a command that the client can use until you remove it. You can do the same thing if you add labels for other purposes, such as like a timer.

On a related note, I made some functions for interacting with the client in basic ways.
  • ARMessage(Text) - Client displays Text in Message Box.
  • ARShowText(Text) - Client displays Text in a copyable text box.
  • ARYesNo(Text) - Client displays Text in Yes/No Message Box. Returns True for Yes.
  • ARInput(Text) - Client displays an Input Box with Text as the prompt. Returns the entered text.
  • ARPassword(Pass) - Client prompts the user for a password and sends it back (encrypted). Returns True if it matches Pass.
  • ARMenu(Items) - Client displays pop-up menu of Items. Returns selected item position.
All of them are demonstrated in the sample commands I included.

These scripts are much more sparsely commented than the sample I mentioned, so if you're trying to learn how to do something similar you're probably better of with that. In case you wondered about the v v v and ^ ^ ^ comments, they indicate that the part in between is the same in both scripts.

I think this script is more suitable for use with a computer across the room than across town but it does work over the internet as well as a LAN. Comments, suggestions, and bug reports are welcome as always.

very cool. I will have to test this later.

Actually, I just need a button to restart my ssh server... this could do it.

I haven't tried it, but it looks like a great idea

Fixed security weakness, kind of. I changed the View Server Code command to edit out the password for the ARPassword function. But needless to say, if you have anything sensitive in your script you should probably remove View Server Code completely, all of those commands were really just examples anyway.

I added a new function, ARMenu. It displays a pop-up menu with whatever items you want and returns the position of the selected item. Also, I had a chance to test this over the Internet, and it does indeed work as expected.

I think this is wonderful and opens many doors to help people or make powerful programs.

I work with a remote deskstop type of program to help my clients. I chose a program, http://www.gidsoftware.com/remotehelpdesk.htm that does a connection from the client to my server because going out through a firewall is much easier than going in through a firewall - nat.. (port forwarding and opening ports is a pain, especially when you are helping a typical end user) Shocked

Does this go out through a firewall to "my" server?

also, looking at the code, not by testing, so i hope i am right, ,,,,,, it looks like only one client at a time can connect to the server.

if so, may i sugjest to start at 820 and that once a client connects, a new thread would start with a listening port 82%A_index% # and an ini type file be written on the server so the next client will know what port to try to connect to.
