using autoremote on phone to open pc program

Helo, I have searched the forums and did not find any info on my problem. Forgive me if this is a simple solution I am new to using eventghost.

I have autoremote set up on my phone and eventghost, im trying to have it open skype when it recieves a message but I want to use the autoremote command that is being sent to open the program. Eventghost recieves this command from autoremote "AutoRemote.Message.openapp params: [u'openapp']; command(s): skype;" I am wondering how I would get skype to open only when the autoremote command sent says skype. I would like to configure this for more than one program so I cant use the "AutoRemote.Message.openapp" as the trigger I need to specify the program which is why I need to access the commands portion but I am unaware of how to do that. Any help is greatly appreciated.

In these cases, there are infinitely many ways to solve it.
One of the simplest is this:

BTW - this is not a good way to start new topics in this forum section.
In my opinion, your query would be correct to write to the topic AutoRemote EventGhost plugin:EG->Android and Android->EG.
But not relate this note to you personally please. Unfortunately, this is almost normal here, and it is therefore meant quite generally.
If you do not use the correct topic (which has been started for support of plugin) then you should have your question correctly placed in the section General Support (and in fact it's basically a general question).
Previously, it was much better. In the Plugin Support section might start a new topic only plugin developer. Now everyone can and it causes a lot of confusion here.
