GOOD NEWS for Geeks and Programmers!!
Since MEMU Android Emulator 6.0, MEmu supports a new full-functional command MEMUC. It is designed to replace all other command interfaces like memu, memumanage, memuconsole and adb. So read this article and you will know everything about this powerful command.
memuc supports to manipulate multiple instances (VMs) such as reboot emulator, check status, install apk, run app and etc. First of all, you need to pass over the index or the name of the target VM. For example:
memuc clone -i 0 (or --index 0) //The 1st VM index is 0, 2nd is 1, 3rd is 2 ...
memuc remove -n MEmu_2 (or --name MEmu_2) //The 1st VM name is MEmu, 2nd is MEmu_1 ...
The MEMUC command is divided into four categories:
"emulator management", "emulator configuration", "emulator control", and "adb command":
Emulator management: It mainly involves the startup and shutdown of the emulator, import and export, creation and deletion, running status query, etc. Except for a few operations such as cloning and renaming, there is no need to specify the instance when calling
Emulator configuration: mainly involves the modification of the emulator properties, and the emulator needs to be specified when calling
Emulator control: mainly involves the control of the Android system, such as installing the app, starting/closing the app, disconnecting the network, etc. The emulator needs to be specified when calling
ADB command: It is mainly to package the official adb command-line tool of Android to solve the problem of connecting to a specific emulator (avoid entering a random IP when using a bridge network), and you need to specify the emulator

[Chapter Four] ADB command
Most likely you don't need ADB command any longer because memuc execmd supports most of Android commands. In addition, memuc execmd doesn't depend on ADB server which means more stable. However, memuc adb is still supported just in case you need a specific adb command for some reason.
Usage: memuc <-i vmindex | -n vmname> adb <adbcmd>
Sample: memuc -i 0 adb "remount" //Execute "remount" command through ADB connection
