sf459: Thanks for showing interest in Cmdgfx. The program is not in development since a couple of years, but obviously you can still use it. I will try to answer your questions briefly: No, you do not need any of the "demo files", they are just examples of what can be done, and they also function as...

Oops, I forgot to copy eextern.dll into the archive, which contains "external C hooks" for some scripts, such as notibly the ScreenSaver-Automata scripts. Also, I forgot the data files of literally hundreds of automata (step between with cursor Up/Down keys in the ScreenSaver-Automata scripts) I hav...

For some reason I checked my Mediafire account recently, and I noticed that the cmdgfx archive was getting quite a few downloads (more so than the others), even though no new release was made since Feb 2020 :!: Because of this I decided, why not release 1.6 in its current state (I don't think I have...

cmdwiz insertbmp "\utils\image.bmp" 50 50 & pause >NUL repeated multiple times by UP ARROW and ENTER keys in console window, randomly DO NOT perform display image. Mostly it display image and it remain on screen untill keypress performed. Sometimes image only flash and disappear, sometimes do absol...

Oh my... talk about being back from the dead... Hope everyone is well! Updated CmdWiz to version 1.9 ! (link to archive in first post) Well, as I suddenly had a use for Cmdwiz in a loop, I ran into the issue that had been reported in this thread before (that I conveniently ignored): that cmdwiz some...

Sweet

Nice, can you add week number as well? Don't know about other countries but in Sweden we are obsessed with referring to the current week number (in the workplace etc)

I actually ran this on my terribly worn down Win7 machine with the noisiest fan known to mankind, but didn't notice any problems.

Therefore, I have now updated the archive to 2.1

Steffen,
I trust you have done an excellent job as always

I will give it a few days before I update the archive though, just in case we should see any regression.

Archive finally updated (to 2.0). Again, good work

I prefer to keep the original behavior of scaling the image. The /s option was removed, instead /c [bg] is now the center option, with optional background color.

You're on a roll! Well done.

I have very limited time now, will try to make a release next week.

Interesting that using hooks is more cpu-consuming than polling, but the way you describe it makes sense.

Found it :D We have to call PostQuitMessage for WM_DESTROY. My original assumption that WMI could be the culprit made me think about alternatives. And indeed I found a much easier way. Instead of passing the console HWND as additional argument it gets now assigned to the user data of the background...

As far as I could tell the new version works as expected. The archive linked in the first post has now been updated to v1.2. I did not make any changes to Steffens new version except updated the resource file, updated the credits in code/help (as this is now very much a joint effort), and recompiled...

Found a bug. New file above...

I don't have much time to look at this at the moment but I like the idea of geting rid of the title polling and seems that it should work well.

I Will make a new release eventually

- a variable with 64000 bytes of stack memory is critical - string "_secondRun_" should be inserted into the original command line because surrounding quotes are already removed if it gets rearranged out of the arguments - a combination of whitespaces is used rather than the word "Kill" and the upd...
