I have some places where I'd like to send an
email, play a WAV, beep the PC, etc.
It sould be *so* nice if AHP could have an
OS Command option. Allow the Customer to
put whatever they want in there, AHP could
shell out and fire the command. Don't worry
whether it worked or not - that's up to the
Customer to create a valid EXE, Batch File,
etc.
This is pretty easy in C++, Java, and VB -
so I would think it could be added to AHP
with minimal effort. But, I know some with
flavors of C++, it's more of a headache than
others.
Anyway, it's the *only* reason I need the
SDK (for now) - and I really don't want to
re-write everything just to "beep" someone
is outside my house at night. Or, play an
MP3 when someone is at the front door. And,
no I don't like the sound of the X10 Chime
at all.
I have a feelling that others are in the
same boat.
Thanks for the consideraton.
