After a rather long detour in PDF file format land, let’s pick up where we left the bpmtk.
My Basic Process Manipulation Tool Kit requires a configuration file with instructions to manipulate processes, like this one to start cmd.exe in a restricted environment:
start cmd.exe search-and-write module:. unicode:DisableCMD hex:41
Save this configuration in a text file, for example start-cmd.txt. And then start bpmtk with this file:
bpmtk start-cmd.txt
You can also embed this configuration file inside the bpmtk executable, like this:
bpmtk start-cmd.txt bpmtk-cmd.exe
This will create a copy of bpmtk.exe, called bpmtk-cmd.exe, with start-cmd.txt embedded as a resource (called BPMTK).
When you execute bpmtk-cmd.exe (without any arguments), the embedded script will be executed. Use this
trick if you often have to execute the same command, or if you have to execute bpmtk in an environment where you cannot provide an argument.
