Hi,
I've got an iMacros script that is working fine - it downloads a file from a weather website. I'm running it in a loop.
I'm running the free browser add-on in Chrome on a Chromebook.
Is it possible to run my setup in silent mode? The examples I see have silent mode as a switch when launching Chrome on Windows.
I can get to a crosh window, but can launch chrome from there, and not sure if the switch would work on a non-windows setup.
I'd like to run my script in the background.
Thanks,
Glenn

"I'm running the free browser add-on in Chrome on a Chromebook.", is not "precise" enough, simply mention all Versions, read my Sig...
=> iMacros for CR v10.1.0(...?) 'Free', CR87(...?), OS...?
+ I don't know/understand what a "crosh window" is, can you explain/give more Info...?
Can you post a Link/Ref to the "examples you see [that] have silent mode as a switch"...?, I'm not sure what you mean exactly, or do you mean the '-silent' and/or '-tray' Switches from the iMacros 'CLI' Syntax...?
- (F)CI(M) = (Full) Config Info (Missing): iMacros + Browser + OS (+ all 3 Versions + 'Free'/'PE').

Re: Chromebook and silent mode
The crosh window is similar to the command or cmd box opened up in Windows. It is text interface to run things like ping, tracepath. I don't think it will launch applications like Windows.
By switch, yes I meant -silent.

Re: Chromebook and silent mode
OK, so I see that -silent is not available in the "free" mode.
So since I need to upgrade to Personal Edition, and Personal Edition only runs on Windows, I guess I've answered my own question.]
