The Command Dialog

Previous  Top  Next

The Command dialog allows you to inspect defined commands and to issue them. It also shows the status of batch files and allows you to start batch files. An alternative to the Command dialog is the GSEOS Explorer, choose the Command node and you can access all defined commands from there.

You can open the command dialog from the View menu, the F7 hotkey, or the command toolbar button.
All command definitions that were loaded can be accessed on the right hand list box. If you double click a command it will copy the command into the Execution line on top of the dialog. If the command requires arguments a dialog will pop up and query for the missing arguments:

On the bottom of the command parameter dialog you can see the command as it you fill in the arguments. Once all arguments are specified you can click Ok and the command string will be copied into the execution line.
On clicking the Execute button the command in the execution line will be executed and removed from the execution line.
A dialog will pop up briefly confirming the sending of the command.
