Docs ---- Template: BackEx BATCHFILE/A,OUTPUT,INPUT,QUIET/S BATCHFILE: File to execute. BackEx simply runs the CLI command "Execute BATCHFILE". Note that it doesn't add any quotations which might cause inproper results. OUTPUT: Output file handle as often used. Default: "CON:0/100/-1/200/ text... /AUTO/WAIT/CLOSE" Note that the default window will stay open until you closed the window. Call BackEx with a new OUTPUT definition not containing "/WAIT/CLOSE". CON: window flags (excerpt): /AUTO - window remains closed until first output is been done. /WAIT - before closing window, wait for EOF signal (ctrl-\ or closewindow) /CLOSE - add close gadget. INPUT: Input handle. Due to dos/SystemTags() it can't be the same as OUTPUT. Sorry. Default to "NIL:" QUIET: Don't open requester if batchfile returned a non-okay error code. Default is OFF.
