Hi Lestroso,

I don't think you're supposed to be able to do that, because it would be a huge security risk. You could, however, use a custom protocol to open an app and add a number of parameters to the URL. If you are the author of the app responding to the custom protocol, then you could write a script that responds to the parameters embedded in the URL.

Kind regards,

Mark

Hi Lestroso,

You can enter the custom URL scheme in the standalone settings (in LC 5.5 or later) and use a simple URL:

Code: Select all

launch URL "lestroso:_some_url?some=parameters&to=parse"
Kind regards,

Mark
