Can you send command line options after Hal has started?

(1/1)

knight2000:
I would like to control Hal's mic after Hal has started up using the command line. The following code works fine if Hal is not running

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Zabaware\Ultra Hal 7\UltraHal7.exe" <SHOWHAL><MICON>"

Hal i will start with his mic enabled

However if Hal is already running he ignores any command line arguments.

Is there a way around this?

Medeksza:
Hal supports an outside program sending HalCommands using an old system called DDE ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_Data_Exchange )

I could swear I made and posted an example of this over a decade ago on this forum, but I can't seem to find it currently.

Mic on, Mic off and Mic toggle

Assuming they still work
