Name	SetCommand
Type	Method
Summary	Sends text to the command window
Prototype	`long SetCommand(BSTR Message);` View list of data type meanings
Description	This lets you send text to the command window. It will only act if the command window is currently empty (to avoid wiping out something you are typing). Because of this you cannot test "setcommand" by typing it into the command window, because by definition, the command window will not be empty (it will have the "setcommand" in it). You must do it from a script, or an immediate window.
VBscript example	`world.SetCommand "think Here is another command"`
Jscript example	`world.SetCommand("think Here is another command");`
PerlScript example	`$world->SetCommand("think Here is another command");`
Python example	`world.SetCommand("think Here is another command")`
Lua example	`SetCommand ("think Here is another command")`
Returns	`eCommandNotEmpty : Command area was not empty eOK: Set OK` View list of return code meanings
