    Can an Event Send a Command Line Command?

    My webcam software can be controlled from the command line. I'm not completely happy with its built-in motion detection, so I would like to use a motion sensor that would trgger an event that would send the command line command to switch to the appropriate camera and turn on recording. Then after the motion sensor sends an off signal, it would turn off recording on that camera. Sounds simple, yet I cannot find any documentation of how to send something to the command line when an event is triggered. Help please. Thanks!

    Instead of running a script using an event, replace the script name with &hs.launch "c:\pathto\myapp paramters"

    You can find more information about the hs.launch() function in the help file, scripting topic (misc. category).
