The vensim_command function is the main function that is used to interact with Vensim. The commands supported are a subset of the commands supported when running Venapps.
Arguments
command Is a null terminated string that indicates the command to execute. See supported commands. Multiple commands can be sent by using an ampersand & between the commands, or with repeated calls. If a command string contains the ampersand it must be quoted (eg. SPECIAL>LOADMODEL|"r&d.vpm") .
Returns
A return value of 1 indicates successful completion of the command. A return value of 0 indicates the command or test failed. The interpretation of failure depends on the command being sent.
Notes
The vensim_command function should only be used with commands that do not require any interaction with the screen. Use vensim_tool_command for creating, copying and printing any visual elements.
