Good luck with your project

Thanks, I have a semi working copy of what I was talking about but for some reason it seems to hang half the time, any ideas?

Fixed the bug...

Im not sure if you will want to use this for ENVY or not, it seems a bit more straight forward than how ENVY dose things.

Well feel free

Very nice

Envy's use case is a bit different though. I need to know whether something went wrong in the installation process and show a popup. And I need to keep a log of what happened otherwise I wouldn't be able to see what went wrong.

I'm glad to see that you managed to find a solution which suits your needs.

I'm pretty sure you could still keep logs (with a bit of adapting), This would also make it easy to track each command you run.

Just throwing it out there for the future.

Once again thanks for the help.
