Hello 

I have a customer who wants the functionality to start a X windows
 sessin from windows NT command prompt by specifying the remote 
host by IP-Address or dns-name
For Example  C:>xcursion 16.191.32.33

Is this possible with Excursion today.

Kind Regards

3273.1PEACHS::GHEFFDo you feel like swimming?Tue Apr 22 1997 13:128
    LAUNCH.EXE is what you want.  Now, is there a good description of the
    syntax required to make it work?  Probably not.  What you can do is use
    the control panel to create a start menu icon for an application, and
    then check the properties of the shortcut that gets created.  This has
    the launch command line in it.  You can probably pick up a few clues
    from there as to the what the switches are and what they're used for.

    Yes, after creating xapp from excursion control panel, use right mouse
    button to get to "properties" of the new icon, go to the "shortcut"
    tab, then use copy-paste to copy the launch line.
