Command Window

There are actually 2 modes - "immediate" and "command", combining the VB6 immediate mode with a sort of DOS-like command window.


Immediate mode is for when you are debugging and want to check a variable, print out some value, etc. Get to immedate mode with "immed"


Command mode is for automating the IDE, and it provides intellisense. Get to command mode with ">cmd". You can do things like open a document. save all files, etc. (Still haven't figured out why this is useful - especially only when you are debugging -- maybe it's available at all times while editing in the IDE). There is a cool feature of command mode where you asign an "alias" to a set of commands, so it can do a bunch of stuff for you.
