Automation via command line   19 June 2024, 08:40

I want to try with my own program that automates jpegtran, a command line utility that can optimise jpeg images without any quality loss whatsoever. It creates an output file which now should go to the R disk. My program simply reads this file and overwrites the input file.

So here's my question. I wonder what programs can be automated using the command line or COM. Some of your products could benefit from this both for setting and getting things. At least one works from the command line but maybe it gives too much such that you have to parse the output.

Some of our products support a command-line interface or have a command-line version.

In particular, for the RAM Disk app, simply launch ramdiskc.exe from the application folder:

Thank you. I just bought a license and my computer is now booting so I haven't had time to install it yet. I think it would be nice if you could get some of the readings as well. Not sure, maybe you should ask your users if this would be something they want.
