Trying to pass some arguments into Terminal on a MacOS VirtualBox VM (from a Windows 10 host). I can get Terminal to launch correctly, but the arguments aren't working.
"C:Program FilesOracleVirtualBoxVBoxManage.exe" guestcontrol "MacOS High Sierra New" run "/Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app/Contents/MacOS/Terminal" --username justin --password password --wait-stdout --"/c echo test"
Am I missing a flag or something? Also, if there's a better way to run shell commands in a VM, I'm all ears. Thanks!
