Is there some documentation on how to launch from TD? I think Powershell has a potential to make some inroads towards being a universal batch language. There's all these shell batch languages that look very similar, but have different libraries and subtly different syntax. I found this out the other day when trying to run a Posix script on my linux system. Of course there are full-blown programming languages like python and java that are universal, but more complicated than most people want for simple file manipulation and command launching. Perhaps I've missed some developments in the original Windows command shell, but the last time I tried it was much harder to make complex if/then decision trees and subfunctions. I wouldn't be surprised if MS replaces the windows command shell with Powershell entirely some day. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
