2 launches: task manager, DOS prompt with directory
ottenm:
Subject says it all, I just can't find either of them. I can get DOS launched with an alias set to "cmd", but I'd like it to open in a different directory (not farr's).
mouser:
very good idea -- does anyone know is there an easy way to open a commandline in a specific directory, or do i need to add a general purpose ability to change to a specific directory when specifying an alias?
jgpaiva:
About the commandline, that's simple. Just create a new alias and add the following as a result:
--- ---cmd /k DRIVE: && cd FOLDER
Replacing DRIVE and FOLDER with the appropriate content.
ottenm:
Not having any luck. Have tried many variations, even trimming them to just:
cmd /k D: // thinking it would open cmd pointing to D:
and
cmd && dir // thinking it would open and run/display a dir
But nothing works, no cmd prompt even opens. It does work with just "cmd" as the result, but points to the FARR directory.
jgpaiva:
Ok, i didn't test that, but now i tested something that works:
--- ---"C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe /k d:\ && cd FOLDER"Should be a solution. For some reason, the collons are necessary.
