Feature request: msg service with time parameter   26 August 2014, 20:07

Hi,

The msg command (msg.exe) supports time parameter: a message box can be displayed for only a few seconds. It's useful to display messages for active users only, and ignore inactive users - they won't see any message if they are not active before the end of message's display. No need to check who is active, who is inactive: we choose all devices. Inactive users don't see anything when they're back.

Is it possible to add this parameter in the "Send Message" box?

Syntax for display "test" on device "mycomputer" for 15 seconds:
msg.exe /SERVER:mycomputer /TIME:15 test

Thanks !
