Documentation: Lacks example of executing guest applications from host

[Technologov]

VirtualBox 3.2.0

Chapter "8.28. VBoxManage guestcontrol"

The syntax for this command is very very difficult.

For such complex commands, an example must be provided.

VBoxManage guestcontrol exec "MyVM" "C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe" --arg "/C" --arg "dir /S 'c:\Windows\System32'" --verbose --wait-for stdout

-Technologov, 20.5.2010.

Also an example for Linux guest please...

[Technologov]

Example for Linux guest:

VBoxManage guestcontrol exec "RHEL3 32-bit" "/bin/ping" --arg "10.0.2.2 -c 4" --verbose --wait-for stdout --username myuser --password 123456
