CmdLi Description

The name CmdLi stands for CommandLine Light. With CommandLine Light, commands can be dropped directly from the windows desktop. On first launch, the CmdLi window appears at top left on the screen. The program window may then be repositioned on the screen with the mouse using click and drag. When satisfied, release the mouse. You input commands in the white area, after pressing the command is executed. During input, the current command can may be deleted by pressing or +C. You may cycle through command history with the arrow keys or by typing of a couple of letters and pressing F8. If you want to see commands stored in history, invoke the dropdown list or press F7. The CmdLi window can be enlarged or reduced by dragging the left or right edge of the window. In this way the command input area is adapted accordingly. When the mouse rests over the CmdLi window, the present working directory appears as a tooltip. Only ONE instance of CmdLi may be loaded a a time, ATTEMPTING to start multiple instances simply results in the running instance receiving mouse focus. With CommandLine Light, commands can be dropped directly from the windows desktop. In this way, programs can be started faster by using the mouse. CmdLi tries to react intelligently to requests by recognising the following immediately: · Internal DOS commands recognized automatically. · All other DOS commands executed based on the PATH variable. · DOSKEY macros (also aliases) can be read from any file and used by CmdLi. · Input beginning with an exclamation mark '!' is interpreted as a DOS command. · The input of a single exclamation mark '!' launches an MS-DOS box. · Files are executed by checking their extension against the registry database. The appropriate program is then launched, and the file loaded. · Indicates a directory. Explorer is opened automatically at the given directory. · If an http or ftp URL (uniform resource Locator) is input, the default browser is launched and connects with this URL, the URL can be in the forms http://, ftp:// or also in the short form www. and/or ftp. · With the CD command, the working directory can be changed as with MS-DOS. All following commands are then referenced to this directory. CmdLi stores command input history. The number of commands stored can be changed between 1 and 999. Moreover, the history may be stored permanently so that all commands successfully interpreted may be retrieved. History may also be used as with MS-DOS using the DOSKEY command, type a character and press F8. History can be searched using F7 (a dropdown list appears), and may be deleted using + F7.
