Include Remote file in Windows

Hi I moved to Photoshop Scripting which is the correct place for the thread.

The difference between Id doScript and Ps system is the doScript does execute visual basic and applescipt whereas system executes shell. doScript returns a result and system doesn't so it needs piping.

Below is not enterprise fail-safe stuff, that cost money.

Enjoy
