Talking to another computer
« on: November 09, 2012, 03:05:05 AM »
Maybe I'm just overlooking it or just tired. So I need some help. How can I run Vox on one computer and tell it to launch applications(like Chrome) on another computer?

You can send and get udp over VoxCommando.
Just create a command and insert a action (with a udp plugin). With the udp plugin you can set the message to send(put a voxcommando event), the ip and the port (for your pc that will open the aplication).
In the pc that will open the application you have to create a command with a action "Launch", put a Event in this command.

you can send udp to eventGhost which can then do lots of things

but you can also send events from one VoxCommando to another.

Here is one way to execute an action on VC that is running on another computer.

In this case we are using the eventGhost action, but really it is just sending a UDP message so we can use it with VC instead of EventGhost.
