"macro>" makes MacroScheduler unresponsive to S

Post by Jeff88 » Sat Mar 01, 2003 7:10 pm

Hello. I'm using MacroScheduler 6.1.0.2. Probably best way to ask this question is with a very simple 3 file example:

[begin file: hubba.scp]
Rem>Nothing to do
[end file: hubba.scp]

[begin file: testwithhubba.scp]
Label>mystart
Macro>c:\msch\hubba.scp
Goto>mystart
[end file: testwithhubba.scp]

[begin file: testwithouthubba.scp]
Label>mystart
Goto>mystart
[end file: testwithouthubba.scp]

If you run testwithouthubba, you can press shift esc to break out of the endless loop.

However, I dare anyone to run testwithhubba.scp and you will lose control of MacroScheduler. And you can't break out with shift esc.

Any work arounds or fixes?
thx.

OK, nice to know.
But I can't see why I should code this way, except this would be part of a Beta-Trial.

Hi Jeff88,

Please try:
1. right-clicking the "Gear" in the System Tray;
2. clicking Break (the topmost choice).

Your script should stop. Please keep posting your Macro Scheduler issues here. Happy scripting.
