Control WB program via cli
Hi there,
I wanted to know if it is possible to ' control ' a running wb app via command line. To illustrate what I mean one could think of iconifyting, closing,bringing back to front or any other standard program function. Is this possible via command line ? |

It depends but generally speaking the answer is no. The program have to support such function. In most cases ARexx is used for this.

If it's on the workbench public screen IIRC some elements may be accessible via the workbench arexx port. If not it'll be down to the app.
