Run .ddr and close afterwards
« on: August 17, 2009, 10:52 AM »
Mouser I associated the .ddr file with your program and when I click on it DDR launches with the configuartion. Is it possible to have it auto run and close afterwards?
That way I can create a scheduled task really easily or have something run on startup.

(I'm using it to update a bunch of working copies of Subversion after VisualSVN hooks broke on my system)

i could add such a feature.
another thing you could do is ask DDR to make a batch file for you, then just save that batch file and run it instead of DDR.

Choose the "Don't Run" radio box from the Shell Window box. The batch file text will be shown at bottom.
Okay, not the most obvious thing i'll admit..

Doesn't matter because it works very well. Excellent.
