Not exiting at eof

[Thuged_Out_G]

code:

proc listProcess     if not Sys.Exec ("C:\\WINNT\\system32\\cmd /k tasklist /svc >> c:\\test.txt") then         put Error.LastMsg     end if     var file : string := "C:\\test.txt"     var fileNum : int     var input : string     open : fileNum, file, get     loop         exit when eof (fileNum)         get : fileNum, input : *         put input     end loop     close : fileNum end listProcess

Can someone please explain why that loop isnt stopping at eof, it just continually reads the file, over and over.

Ok, got the loop issue figured out ... another problem arrises, which im unsure as to the best way to deal with.

code:

var win := Window.Open ("title:win") var file : string := "C:\\test1.txt" var fileNum : int var input : string var inputChar : string var sys : int var ch := '"q"' View.Set ("text") proc getProcess     open : fileNum, file, write     close : fileNum     if not Sys.Exec ("C:\\WINNT\\system32\\cmd.exe /k tasklist /svc >> C:\\test1.txt") then         put Error.LastMsg     end if end getProcess proc listProcess     delay (5000)     open : fileNum, file, get     loop         exit when eof (fileNum)         get : fileNum, input : *         put input     end loop     close : fileNum end listProcess proc killProcess     var PID : string     put "Enter the PID of the process you would like to end: " ..     get PID     if not Sys.Exec ("C:\\WINNT\\system32\\cmd.exe /k ntsd -p " + PID + " -c " + ch) then         put Error.LastMsg     end if end killProcess getProcess listProcess killProcess

That is my code, my problem is after listProcess is called, im left with a command prompt, the same issue after I kill a process.
Does anyone know of a way I could close each command prompt after the the command is executed.

Use the /c parameter instead of the /k. That should terminate the window after it's done doing what it supposed to.
(Just a note, I found that by typing in "help cmd" into the command prompt.)

code:

if not Sys.Exec ("C:\\WINNT\\system32\\cmd.exe /k tasklist /svc >> C:\\test1.txt&&exit")

Is what I found, i'll try the /c those when I get home .. thanks!
Also, I was told on a website article that using the above ntsd command I could kill any process, Although try to kill certain processes always comes back with a access denied message.
