Ping
 
Heya.

I would really love to be able to ping when using Zmud.. so i could perhaps get the ping reply in the status window, However, I have no idea how to make such a thing. Perhaps one of you hotshots[8D] could help me?

Thanks in advance

Send an e-mail to zugg. The only ping you can get as of now is when you edit your char.

You need a ping app that has a COM interface, like DSPing. Get it here:
http://www.donia.com/DSPing.exe

Install that. Then here's your class:

/CLASS {Ping}
/ALIAS zping {
/ECHO {Pinging %1 with 3 packets at 32kb each...}
/VAR dsping %comcreate( "DSPing.Ping")
/VAR dsping_result {@dsping.DoPing("%1",3,2000,32)}
/IF (@dsping_result=0) {/ECHO {Ping Successful}} {/ECHO {Ping Unsuccessful: Error code is @dsping_result}}
/ECHO {Minimum ping was @dsping.Minimum ms.}
/ECHO {Maximum ping was @dsping.Maximum ms.}
/ECHO {Average ping was @dsping.Average ms.}
/VAR dsping ""
/VAR dsping_result ""
}
/CLASS 0

usage: zping www.google.com

I use / for my command char, cuz I think the # is terribly unwieldy. anyway, change the / to # and you should be good to go.

Read dsping.htm in the install directory for the error codes translations.

Does anyone know of a traceroute application that has a COM interface?
