Feed From CMD VB.net

Question

I am writing a utility for Minecraft Coder pack. It works off batch files that run python. Is it possible to read and write from the cmd into say a text box and run commands for vb.net to the cmd?

Yes. See my answer here: Opening a plink window from VB.NET application without showing the black ugly plink window

Basically, you want to hide the window, and redirect standard in/out.

Dim p as New Process
With p.StartInfo
    .WindowStyle=ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden
    .RedirectStandardOutput=true
    .RedirectStandardInput=true
End With

You can then read and write using p.StandardInput and p.StandardOutput.

You can find more options to set as well in the ProcessStartInfo class.
