hi,

how to check whether the -- PB compiled -- .exe was started
'directly' (like, double-click or Start/Run) or via shell (cmd.exe/c:\app.exe)?

thanks!

Code: Select all

OpenConsole()


GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo_(GetStdHandle_(#STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE),@xy.CONSOLE_SCREEN_BUFFER_INFO)
If(xy\dwCursorPosition\Y=0)
MessageRequester("Appl.","Please, start from command-line!"):End
EndIf


PrintN("Hello.")


End

There was also a tip somewhere in the forum to do the check for standard applications, wasn't it?
I can't find it anymore...

...but I believe, that there was an output, if the application has been started by a double click or via command line
