.bat file to open executable within Console2

Question

I am aiming to create a .bat launcher that will execute a command line .exe program within Console2.
My best guess would be that it should go something like:

@echo off
start "" Console.exe program.exe

but all that does it open Console2.
Please note that all .bat, and executables are all in the same folder.

Answer 1

Ok I looked in source for the Console.exe and drilled down into the compiled help.

You need a -r

So: Console.exe -r program.exe

Command line parameters

Console supports these command line parameters: 

-c <configuration file>
     Specifies a configuration file. 


-w <main window title>
     Sets main window title. This option will override all other main window title settings (e.g. 'use tab titles' setting) 


-t <tab name>
     Specifies a startup tab. Tab must be defined in Console settings.


-d <directory>
     Specifies a startup directory. If you want to parametrize startup dirs, you need to specify startup directory parameter as "%1"\ (backslash is outside of the double quotes) 


-r <command>
     Specifies a startup shell command. 


-ts <sleep time in ms>
     Specifies sleep time between starting next tab if multiple -t's are specified.
