- New option --command <action> <params> to send commands to
a running instance of openvpn-gui.exe
Supported actions are
connect, disconnect, reconnect
each of which takes the name of the config (with or without the
extension .ovpn) as a parameter;
disconnect_all, exit
which take no parameter and
silent_connection
which takes an optional parameter = 0 or 1 (1 is the default)
Examples: with the gui running, start a new instance as
openvpn-gui.exe --command disconnect myvpn : ask running instance
to disconnect myvpn if connected
openvpn-gui.exe --command status myvpn : ask running instance
to show the status window for myvpn if available
openvpn-gui.exe --command disconnect_all : ask running instance
to disconnect all active connections
- The second instance exits after issuing a SendMessage to the
already running instance. If no action is specified, the running
instance is notified to show a balloon to alert the user
- These messages may also be sent from scripts as COPYDATA messages
with the wData element specifying the action to execute and lpData
a pointer to the parameter. The dwData param must be one of
WM_OVPN_xxx with xxx = START, STOP, RESTART, STOPALL, EXIT or
SILENT. See main.h for their values.

- This works the same way as restart button in the status window
but is more conveniently accessible from the tray menu.

- This case was missed by commit 5fb23f6ad9 that introduced
automatic username/password submission.
- Also avoid auto submit if the recalled password is an empty
string.

- Effective only when username and password are saved.
- The user may interrupt auto submission and edit the username/password.
- If silent_connection is on the dialog is bypassed without any delay.
v2 changes:
- Display message in normal text color and show remaining time

- Make the OK button appear highlighted as the default action so that
the user can press enter and submit the form. This also gives a clearer
indication of the default action when automatic submission of saved
username/password activates.

Allow the GUI to run without any registry keys present:
the location of openvpn installation defaults to
C:\Program Files\OpenVPN if not found in registry.
Useful for testing builds or to display --help etc.

- Flag password and username input if these contain an invalid character
(currently only embedded '\n' is disallowed). Shows a popup when OK
is pressed so that the user can correct the input and resubmit.
- Add an error message to the log when the management i/f returns
ERROR for incorrectly parsed commands. Otherwise such errors go
unnoticed.
Note: IDS_ERR_INVALID_USERNAME/PASSWORD need translations.

Hello,
I just put my contribution for the French translation of OpenVpn Gui
Can you put it in the next update
In thanking you
(The next update is for when?)
- "Wrong username or password" message shown in the auth userpass dialog after
an auth failure
- "Wrong password" message shown in the private key password dialog after a
password failure.
These message texts are colored red by default (TODO: make the color customizable)
