Opus provides an internal command called CLI .
This command provides a shell which generally behaves as does a normal
AmigaShell, with a couple of exceptions:
1) You can enter any internal Opus command and it will work providing you've
used the correct format, etc.
2) You can enter any Opus ARexx command by prefixing it with a +.
Create a menuitem/button/etc with the following function:
Function : Command CLI
That's it! Now use the button or menuitem, a shell will open with the
following text in it:
Directory Opus 5 Command Line Interpreter v0.04

Type 'help' for help.
>
Let's try an ARexx command, type the following at the prompt:
> +dopus error 10
--> Invalid lister handle
As you can see, you get an immediate response, try a few more:
> +dopus query background desktop
> +lister new
> +lister close all
So if you're having trouble with an Opus ARexx command in a script, you can
try it out in the Opus CLI.
