Re: Community challenge: Automated PBEM e-mailing
my script is a batch file (for copying files around, launching dom, etc.) and an accompanying sendmail.exe which the bat invookes. How I have it set up is I just make a windows shortcut on my desktop for each game I'm playing and the shortcut is set to invoke the script passing in the args in for that game (game name, nation, etc). Get a turn notification, download the turn to my defauld download dir, click on the shortcut for that game and I'm good to go. I'm writing this from my phone, but when I attatch it tomorrow I'll post no brainer instructions so anybody can use it without needing a command prompt.

oh yeah, you don't have to dl it to the game folder, just the same folder ( ie c:/downloads) every time.

Re: Community challenge: Automated PBEM e-mailing
You're writing from a phone? Wow, I'm impressed. I hadn't quite internalised that that was really feasible yet. I sometimes feel like technology sneakily keeps on advancing when I turn my back.
