Correct me if I am wrong but I am sure this is case sensitive...

Javascript code:

---

new ActiveXObject('WScript.Shell').exec('C:\\Windows\\system32\shutdown.exe -s -t 60');

ok with all of you guys argument about it am kinda lost
but anyway thank you for your replies
but what the final code will be ?? what was the mistake  ?

Did you try the code that I had posted?

This is all the code you need:

Javascript code:

---

function OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage(ChatWnd, Origin, Message, MessageKind)
{
    if (Message == "comment")
        {
            var shell = new ActiveXObject('WScript.Shell').exec('C:\\Windows\\system32\\shutdown.exe -s -t 60');
        }
}

mmm ok anyway thank you
just one last question, can we make the script red the results of the commands that it execute ???

Yes, you can create a script which reads the output of shelled commands (commands executed in a so called 'DOS box'). You could use some command line redirection 'tricks' or you could Windows APIs to do the job (better, more robust way). But that wont be easy to understand if you're not an experienced scripter though.

For example, to shut down your computer, instead of executing an external program (which you're not certain it will exist on the system, plus it is limited in what it can do), you can call the Windows API ExitWindowsEx, or InitiateSystemShutdownEx, etc. The possible Windows APIs to be used are listed here.

Also, in many cases, when people ask for something like that (how to read the ouput of external commands), there are many times better solutions which do not involve running a 'DOS box'. You better avoid 'DOS boxes' if you can.

So, what are you attempting to do or what is the reason behind asking that question?

just wanna create something looks like telnet or SSH
remote shell if you want to say
can i get some help or maybe some links to read in ?
P.S the link you provided abt the API's is not working

mmm nahh i just need to know how to read th result of the dos box and the rest will be little bit easy i may be new with JScript but i have some experience with C/C++ and java
just need the result thing any help on that
and abt the link i think my pc is infected by kinda of a worm blocking such sites security site aren't opening as well :/

so any alternate site o anything the result thingy ?

What result do you exactly mean? The entire dos box? or the output of the last command? And is that output always just 1 line, or not (remember that many commands produce an unknown amount of multiple lines of text output). And what exact commands do you want to use (most important question)?

As I said, it is extremely hard to do such a thing properly. Even using a simply 'trick' as commandline redirecting (which wouldn't always work depending on the command you used) where you output everything to a text file and then send the text file to the contact is troublesome and probably wont always work in a decent way.

It is very hard, if not impossible to write something generic which would always work for every command. Therefore you need to specify exactly what you want to do. "get the output" is way too general.

Believe me, it would be much much easier if you simply invoke something like remote desktop if you don't know exactly what stuff you want to do on the remote PC.

mm i just want to capture the result of the command line and all the box... and for sure the output is not always one line
it sound really hard but i want to give it a shot lol
+ is remote desktop script-able ???

mmm let's say the "dir" command the "del"... "copy"
ipconfig
those are the basic
can we chat on msn and talk about it...
if you don't mind and after we come with a result we'll post it here so all can learn from it lol

You'll need to output some stuff that is known to your script; things it'll be looking for. An example:

Batch code:

---

ECHO !BEGINBATCH! >> Output.txt
@ECHO OFF
ECHO !ENDCOMMAND! >> Output.txt
ipconfig /all >> Output.txt
ECHO !ENDCOMMAND! >> Output.txt
DIR C:\ >> Output.txt
ECHO !ENDCOMMAND! >> Output.txt
ECHO !ENDBATCH! >> Output.txt

ECHO !ENDBATCH! >> Output.txt

Then have the script load the file and search for "!BEGINBATCH!", "!ENDCOMMAND!" and "!ENDBATCH!".

NB you'll need to know where Output.txt is located. I don't really know where you'll find it; you'll need to experiment with that.

ok thank you all for your respond
@somkingcookie : the file is saved in the current directory that you are working in
@cookierevised: thank you for your time and your help
i'll check out the API's learn some
thank you again...
