Note
To execute a listed command, you need to have a valid ticket.

Now you can duplicate the tab if you want, or use the same tab and type http://servername/gn4/int/edo.ashx?Cmd=commandname
To get a list of all available commands, type http://servername/gn4/int/edo.ashx?Cmd=Help&x=docbook
To get a short description of a command, e.g. Print command, type http://servername/gn4/edo.ashx?Cmd=Help&Name=Print&X=docbook
