Hey, can EventGhost receive (log) window messages sent to it? I have played a little but couldn't find a way..
I'm using program called SendMessage.exe to send window messages to EventGhost but the log doesn't display them (they are being sent, checked with Winspector)..
Thank you!
PS. I'm using the Beta v0.3.6.1483 on WindowsXP SP3

EventGhost.exe -e yourevent

EventGhost.exe -n 127.0.0.1:1024 1234 yourevent
becomes TCP.yourevent
(assuming port 1024 and password 1234)

i knew about that option but i didn't understand what it does. i thought you have to run eventghost with it and then it would register listener for that message. instead it sends a message to already running eventghost window. perfect, just what i need! excellent stuff, awesome program eg!

Re: Receiving Window Messages
It would be possible to give EG the ability to be controlled by SendMessage, but it wouldn't be very useful to only have numeric events. And to get SendMessage to work with strings the sender would need code that uses GlobalAddAtom() and this is much to complicated in most cases.
Please post software-related questions in the forum - PMs will only be answered, if really private, thanks!
