I revisited this yesterday because I needed to fix up a script that's used by other team members, who don't use TCC, but I wanted it to work either way, with the only difference being that "affinity". What I ended up doing was to set an "affoption=" variable to either "/affinity 4000" for CMD...

Thanks - disabling mouse wheel did in fact help. :) I'm aware of VIEW but I guess I'm just stuck in my ways. I'll have to adjust at some point but I can be stubborn. Most of the time I use Notepad++ for any real stuff but I still fall back into habit of using LIST when I just want to check...

I recently setup a program called "Input Director" which lets me share my keyboard and mouse between 2 computers on my desk (each with its own monitor). It's similar to programs like Barrier, Sharemouse, or Mouse Without Borders. It works great but yesterday I ran across something very weird. I...

Well, that's one way to do it I suppose. I'm sure I'll forget at times when I'm in TCC doing things and just want to kick something off ad-hoc. That's when the CMD compatibility issues show up. Anyway, it's a minor quibble, but I do like it when built-in commands between cmd and tcc have the...

I was recently testing out a batch file that was written for cmd, and trying to add some TCC fanciness around it to make it work a little better. In essence, the script will launch a program and it's assigning affinity and node to each one so they run on their own core. The unusual thing...

Cool, I just gave that a try on a virtual machine without a sound card and it's working nicely. The plugin functions are much better than the hacky workaround I was doing by parsing the output of the ping command. It resolved an ipv6 only host as expected and the @pingtime worked great as well...

Ah, I figured that was probably the case. I sometimes have to run some script on a system with access to a network that my workstation doesn't have (security reasons) and it's a VM - no audio device. Oh well ... I won't be a pest and ask for a change just for me. :) But if you happened to...

Thanks, I'll check that out now that I have a little time again to poke at it. FYI, you may not have seen my reply to the other thread that was more APING specific, since it was kind of an old thread I accidentally zombified...

Oh, FYI, I ran this on my Windows 10 machine, which is my normal mode. I do sometimes need to run this on a Windows 2012R2 server (network security thing) and when the APING plugin tries to load, I get this error: I didn't see any way around that unfortunately.

FYI, I installed the APING plugin and tried this, which works. It's a bit awkward but it gets me what I was trying to do in the first place: echo %@ping[%@lookuphost[ipv6.google.com]] Since the native @PING function actually does work with ipv6 address but not via a hostname that resolves to an...

That's odd. Does your system have IPv6 enabled? I'd have to dig up a system that has it turned off so I can test that. Maybe if ipv6 is disabled on the adapter, Windows won't show that result (since it wouldn't work anyway). ... No, that wasn't it. I disabled ipv6 on a test machine and it was...

I don't know about a @LOOKUPHOST function, but here's a way to test it out. (EDIT: I presume that's a function in the APING plugin... I haven't actually tried it out yet, but I'll definitely give it a go) Google operates an IPv6 test site that only has an IPv6 address. "ipv6.google.com" I can...

I sometimes use a quick FOR loop on a list of machines to see which respond to pings, as a quick "up or down" status for me. Some systems will only have IPv6 addresses in our internal DNS and I noticed that those fail to resolve at all with either @PING or @IPADDRESS. I can use the ping and...

Awesome... I confirmed that 23.0.31 fixed the issue. Thanks Rex! :smile:

Hmmm... I haven't tried my script in a while that was using @regbread on a remote system, but now that I've updated my system to 23.00.29 it's no longer working when I specify a remote computer with that function. As an example, I started up the remote registry service on another computer and...
