Process a command line as a local, PC-resident
command. The entire command line must be in double quotes.
Options:
-p run "cmdline" as a seperate process; thus allowing
SYSTEM to return immediately.
-w wait for process set up with -p to terminate.
Note1:
If no options are specified, the "cmdline" string is
simply passed to the system() WIN32 function. The -p option
causes the command to be invoked using CreateProcess(), then if
-w is used, it will wait for the process to terminate by calling GetExitCodeProcess()
every second until that process terminates. Using -pw on the command
line together is essentially the same action as not using either of the
options; however, the underlying code is different.
Note2:
Refer to the main scripting page
for an example using SYSTEM to play a .WAV file.
