Hello all!

I'm on the lookout for a method to control programs in a Windows environment.

I would prefer it to be a bit similar to the Linux software "screen".

The reason of my search is that I need to start a program (on Windows) with an identifier, so I later would be able to close that specific program, without closing anything else - even though the actual program (.exe file) is running multiple times. So is there anyway I can "name" it?

I'm using the following on Linux now:

$ screen <params> <id> ./softwareprogram

And then I know I can always find it with it's ID :)

It's an external program which is closing or starting a 3rd party program.

My program is written in C++, if that does any difference.

Thanks :)
