Hi - no, I have an emacs macro that runs a .bat file that starts jconsole as a process under a running emacs.
So my macro - for J 9.01, based on my previous ones - looks like this: (defun start-J9-session () "Open J 9.01 jconsole session." (interactive) (setq save-old explicit-shell-file-name) (setq shell-file-name "J901_64") (setq explicit-shell-file-name (concat base-disk "/utl/J64-901.bat")) (shell) (insert "qts''\n") (insert "JVERSION\n") (comint-send-input) (setq explicit-shell-file-name save-old) ) The "insert" statements followed by "(comint-send-input)" are inserted into the J session after it starts and run so I have some relevant information at the start of each session. The batch file " J64-901.bat" looks like this: Rem J64-901.bat: start 64-bit jconsole v9.01 of J (under emacs). %BASEDSK% cd "%BASEDSK%\Users\devon_mccormick\J901_64\bin" Rem "-interactive" signals not a batch run ../jconsole.cmd %BASEDSK%\amisc\JSys\J8\DHMConfig.ijs -interactive -js "1!:44 '\amisc\work\neuralNets\'" So, pretty standard.
