Is it possible to start another S80 App from within an opl app?

Hi!

I wonder if it's possible to start execution of a native S80 application from within an opl app? I'm thinking of developing a very simple application loader gui for a friend with limited keyboard usage. The 'My Key' function is useful for him, but he'd need shortcuts for about 10 apps. I was considering to run an opl program as a front end & then he could launch applications from it.

Is this possible? I scanned through the Wki & couldn't find any suitable commands.

Yes its possible, it looks like:

INCLUDE "System.oxh"
SyRunApp&😞"Calc","C:\System\Apps\Calc.ini",""2)

Wow! This is very cool 😃

I just had to play with the quotation marks...

SyRunApp&😞"Calc","C:\System\Apps\Calc.ini","2"😉
