  • Command line control

    From Bill Gordon@1:3634/22 to All on Sat Sep 10 14:33:41 2011
    Hello All.

    Can IREX 2.31 be controlled from the command line? Or from a batch file?

    We do it in Windows.

    My REX.BAT

    cd\irex
    if not exist *.0 goto START
    if exist *.0 goto CHOKE

    :START
    rexw.exe -daemon -tray
    if exist *.0 goto END

    :CHOKE
    del *.0
    goto START

    :END
    exit

    To send outbound mail: rexw.exe -s
    To fetch new mail: rexw.exe -f

    Of course the last letter in the main filename depends on what platform
    your version of Internet Rex runs on.
