Processes |
IntroductionThe process opcodes are for launching programs from nano.Processes can be started synchron or asynchron. Synchron means that nano halts until the program is finished. An asynchron launched program will run parallel, nano continues running. The following example launches the windows notepad: // process.na // launching a program #setreg_l L0, null; #setreg_l L1, one; #setreg_l L2, two; #setreg_l L3, process; #setreg_l L4, retcode; push_i 0, null; push_i 1, one; push_i 2, two; string prog[256]; move_s "C:/windows/system32/notepad.exe", prog; print_s "running notepad..."; print_n one; runpr prog, process; // wait until process ends waitpr process, retcode; print_s "return code: "; print_l retcode; print_n two; exit null; OpcodesL = long register, SV = string variable runpr SV (program name), L (process number); launch program runsh SV (program name), L (return code); launch shell waitpr L (process number), L (return code); wait until process ends error codesThe process opcodes return a error code to the variable "_process".Take a look at the "process.nah" include for more info.
