Default Re: Community challenge: Automated PBEM e-mailing

Coincidentally enough I was just putting the finishing touches on my own scripts that work close to what Jazz just outlined. Windows only but Linux should be easy enough. Already planned on releasing it to the community this weekend, just gotta finish testing it tomorrow. FWIW I set up a new gmail account just for this which the turns are sent from so you won't even need to configure any of that for the llamaserver if you're not too technical.

I've been using this script for a couple months and it just occurred to me to make it generic and available for all.

Basically you manually download your tun to the same place every time, launch the script, it launches your Dom game, you take your turn and exit Dom, the script mails your turn to llamaserver (unless you close that window before exitting Dom). No GUI, but easy to use and it works...

WOW!!

Now that is a coincidence. Can't wait to give it a try. Good work Baalz!

What did you write it in? I am seriously ignorant of Windows programming, cos I've learnt most of my programming during my PhD, and the department computers use Linux.
