I would like to post a link on a Mediawiki page which when clicked opens the PUTTY console and ssh into a server. For example,
[file:%SystemRoot%\system32\Cmd.exe /c putty -ssh <some server>]
This is being rendered as plain text. This command text %SystemRoot%\system32\Cmd.exe /c putty -ssh <some server> works perfectly when Windows+Run.
Thoughts?
Write a simple console app that takes your input on command line args[0] then register a protocol (such as foo://) and pass the argument from the page onto that.

I want to print to pdf using Redmon and Ghostscript on windows 10, for which i added a new printer(set drivers to ghostpdf.inf) and added redirection port(RPT1). Now when i configure this port i get the error Invalid window handle, please check the picture. Thanks
Okay you need admin rights -
edit port configuration using cmd as admin with command -
printui.dll PrintUIEntry /p /n "printer name"
It is much better and more stable if you create a new port via "Print Management" of Windows, not via Printer Properties window
Hello i was trying to issue some distributed erlang commands such as erl -sname/erl -name and i do not get a response.
If i put . at the end it says syntax error.
If i don't it won't return anything and it will treat it like an unfinished command.
I thought this is only for these commands but it seems there are others that will not do anything like
erl -man <module_name>.
Do i need to set something up to be able to issue erl commands.
P.S OS is Windows 10.
The erl command (with or without -sname) is simply how you run Erlang from a console window like cmd or powershell. On Windows, to get a fully working Erlang shell with command line editing etc, you need to use the special werl executable instead of erl - this is due to how Windows consoles work. Try opening a cmd or powershell windows and see how it works.
If you open the properties of the icon you have used for starting Erlang, you will see that the command it is running is werl (from the Start menu you have to use "more -> open file path" to find the actual icon first). You can edit this and add options like -sname yournodename to the command, or you can create a copy of the icon (e.g. to your desktop) and give it a more suitable name, like "My Erlang node", and then edit its options.
Since I prefer using bash (and use git anyway), I tried running docker run -it ubuntu bash (after a successful hello-world), which unfortunately resulted in a invalid handle error. Using cmd.exe instead, it works fine.
Turns out the problem is my using ConEmu to host mintty.exe. Using mingw64.exe (or mintty.exe) directly instead, the error reads
the input device is not a TTY. If you are using mintty, try prefixing the command with 'winpty'
instead and provides the helpful information to prefix winpty, which then also works from within ConEmu. Note however that winpty also messes up your command line parameters, e.g. winpty echo yes /no yields yes C:/yourmsyspath/no...
I'm trying to print to separate printers simultaneously in Ubuntu 14.04
From all of my reading the best option I've seen is to write a script
that sends an lp command to the separate printers.
This is the script I've written so far
!/bin/bash
lp -d printer "$#"
lp -d printer2 "$#"
where printer and printer 2 are the actual printers installed on the system
This script works from a terminal, however I would like to be able to send print jobs directly to a "printer" that is actually the script I've written.
How can I make this lp script into a "printer"
Ok I didn't find a way to do this the way I originally intended, however it is possible with tea4CUPS
great cups backend tool with an easy config file
http://www.pykota.com/software/tea4cups/download
The install instructions are on the download page.
As for printing to multiple printers, add this command in the config file for every printer you wish to print to.
prehook_firstprinter: /usr/bin/lp -d Name of Printer -o raw $TEADATAFILE
Here are the simplest instructions I could write
1. download the tea4cups.gz
Extract it to the home folder, rename it to tea4cups
Open a terminal and run these commands
sudo cp /home/manifester/tea4cups/tea4cups.conf /etc/cups
sudo cp /home/manifester/tea4cups/tea4cups /usr/lib/cups/backend/
sudo chmod 700 /usr/lib/cups/backend/tea4cups
Run this command
sudo gedit /etc/cups/tea4cups.conf
Paste this in the bottom of the document
prehook_firstprinter: /usr/bin/lp -d Name of Printer yes the literal name in the printer window -o raw $TEADATAFILE
you will need a new line for every printer you have, so if you want to print to 3 printers you will need three of the above line each having the name of the printer it will be talking to.
save and close everything
open a terminal and run
sudo service cups restart
open a web browser and go to the browser cups controller
http://localhost:631/admin
go to Add Printer
you should see a printer named "tea4CUPSnothing"
If you don't see it go back and press "Find Printers"
it should be there
Change the info of the printer to "Print all" for all type fields"
Press Continue
The generic printer driver works because the printer doesn't actually exist.
Press Continue
Set Defaults
you should be done, go to your printer window on ubuntu and do a test print.
When adding a URL into a web browser, I get the usual prompt to open the XML file and view it. However, when I use the same URL within a Curl batch file it only appears to download the login aspx page.
//stuff/stuff/Report.aspx?Report=All_Nodes_IP_Report&DataFormat=XML&AccountID=<UID>&Password=<password>
My batch file looks like this:
curl -L "//stuff/stuff/Report.aspx?Report=All_Nodes_IP_Report&DataFormat=XML&AccountID=<UID>&Password=<Password>" -o "local.xml" -v
pause
What am I doing wrong? There's no proxy server between me and the report URL..? The web site is https but I can't include that as the validation checker keeps moaning at me :)
why use CURL when you can use one application called MGET that i create.
Download Link:
http://bit.ly/1i1FpGE
Syntax of the command:
MGET //stuff/stuff/Report.aspx?Report=All_Nodes_IP_Report&DataFormat=XML&AccountID=<UID>&Password=<Password> local.xml
And if you want to use HTTPS do it, for best experience use HTTP
