Hi Support

I think this topic was covered some time back but I can't find the thread now.

Anyway, while Visual Cron is extremely functional, I also use it to integrate with a suite of utilites from coolutils (http://www.coolutils.com) - incredibly useful for file conversions (PDF's in my case).

There are some 40'ish different utilites, most of which can be run from the command line, but the more I am using it the more awkward it is becoming to set up different conversion routines, all requiring different parameters.

So, my question. Would it be possible to create a 'Users' Task menu option where we could define our own tailored tasks and parameters to make it very easy to incorporate third party utilities into our VC Jobs?

I know we can do this with the 'Command Line' task, but it would be nice just to select a custom task by name?

Could the custom tasks perhaps be built with the new 'Popup' task form builder?

Cheers

Andy
