hi,
i have been trying to use xbmc-send commands via ssh, and for basic strings like activatewindow(addonname) works fine, but for complex strings with "&" and ";", the strings i keep testing with seem to be ignored when executed.
the result is that the correct window id is opened ie. for video or programs, but not the actual addon or file i want to be triggered.
i have tested that the activatewindow string works as an "onclick", just not via ssh
i suspect, that ssh is parsing my string, but i am not sure how i can stop that from happening.
many thanks in advance,
Dam0
