WebCommand

WebCommand

There is a popular package “WebTerminal”. It is excellent in most situations.
Except:

• running system commands in your operating shell is not so easy
• as it communicates to the IRIS host over HTTP and WSS it consumes 2 connections
  With only 5 connections in the community license (and the “Grace Period of CSP”)
  you can hit the limits rater fast: 2 Webterminals + 1 SMP and you are done
• WebCommand is a pure CSP page consuming just 1 single connection
• WebCommand allows multiple ObjectScript command lines running in sequence
• With $ or ! your command goes to Operating System same as with default terminal
• It is no full terminal emulation but a slim helper for debugging
• And it is an excellent place to apply “One Liners”
