Running external *.exe

[bartwell]

Hello!
I need to run some *.exe on my computer by link clicking. Is it possible on HFS?
Thank's.

I think it has to download first to your machine and then ran from your computer if you are using HFS. If it's all internal to your network, you could map a drive to the share.

Sorry, you don't understand me.
I already use HFS and that is very-very good program. But, sometimes, I need to do some operations with my computer from remote computer: run exe, reboot and other. May be I can make some link in HFS, which will run exe?

you can use the macro {.exec|exefilename|params.}, you have to manage where launch it ( section or event )

Thank's a lot! I will try to understand.

let say you want to run reboot.exe
create a folder named "reboot"
right click, properties, diff template, and put this text

{.exec|C:\reboot.exe.}

{.exec|C:\reboot.exe.}

Thank you very much for so realizable instructions. But it doesn't work: when I click "reboot" folder in my browser I see text "{.exec|C:\reboot.exe.}" and exe doesn't run. What's wrong? HFS version 2.2F (155).

Macro works only with beta 2.3 #XXX

Rejetto's explanation was just a example.

reboot.exe must exist in c:\
