I experimented with wait / nowait - it is not a reason. It seems for me that reason is platform dependent or mail server dependent. The example I decribed in previous mesage I got on an very old PC with Win95 4.00.950 B (processor 175 mhz) ;-) with MSIE 4.0 and freeware servers: web - Abyss and mail - Hamster. Finaly I tested that script on brand new PC with Win2000pro and ISP mail server - all was running well - as I expected. At last I tested it on that old PC with my ISP mailserver and I got many blue screens, and finaly result that was the same like on the new PC. But after a few keypreses Win95 finaly dies.
It looks like that I shoul upgrade my study PC to continue time effective Rebol studies. :-| Janeks On 5 Apr 2004 at 23:06, Anton Rolls wrote: I think don't use /no-wait. (You also might not need to use wait myPop, then ...) Just a quick suggestion. The difference between console typing session and script is: the script doesn't pause in between...
