I'd like to kick off an EG macro from a remote computer. I'd prefer not to run EG on the remote machine all of the time (and use the Event Sender plugin).
I saw some code in this forum that shows how to write a light client in PHP to handle EG's password handshake/cookie exchange.
Has anyone created an EXE that'll do this from a command line?

I have just uploaded EG 0.3.6.913 to the experimental directory:
http://www.eventghost.org/forum/viewtop ... =2190#2190
This version support the "-n" argument from the command line. The command line is a bit more complex. You have to additionally supply the remote IP or hostname, the port and the password of the receiving machine. Lets assume the PC you want to send the event to, has the IP 192.168.0.1 and port 32333. The commandline should look like this:
EventGhost.exe -n 192.168.0.1:32333 password MyEvent
This will not starup EG the normal way. It will only send the event through TCP/IP and then leave the program. But you have to install the full EG setup on the remote machine.
