load a skill into the terminal

Titi

Hello, i try to load a skill (toto.il) into the terminal wish has launched my icfb.

I try it with an Opusserver but i can't load toto.il directly, i try to load it by using a variable "command" , when i set manualy (into icfb) command to "toto.il", all is ok, the script is launched. But i can'tset the variable command to "toto.il" into the terminal, i think the probleme is due to the string, the return is always "" or nil.

This is my syntax : 

echo "command = "toto.il" " | opusClient (This command always return nil)
echo "(load command)" | opusClient

 Have you a solution instead of my solution with opusServer ??

 Thanks.

    Thanks Derek & Andrew,

    This could be a possibility, but my script is very complex in tcl wish made some layout update, when a user execute it. And for the moment, the skill neded is written in a file and the prompt say to the user, please load( "toto.il"), i just want to make it automatically by the script. "toto.il" has not all time the same syntax, so it's very difficult to use the comand skill given in the latest posts. 

    At the moment, i have found a trick, i launch icfb with the command

    icfb -restore my_startup.il &

     and in my_startup.il, i define some variables command1 = "load1.il", ..., ... At the end my tcl script could execute the command into the terminal:

    echo "(load command1) | OpusClient

    It's not very Good, but for the moment it's work ... :p

    I think, this chalenge will interessed you... ;-)

     

    Thanks. 

    Remi
