breakpoints bug!

I think I found the real problem with the breakpoints that causes RunRev to suddenly quit after closing some stacks! The first solution Chipp gave us helps but doesn't work for all cases... The second solution is this set the crevgeneral["debugobjects"] of this stack to "" save stack close stack

Nice Alex, I didn't know that rev handler existed! ;) To avoid the precision problem, just keep the original coordinates unrotated. It's ok for scale or translations but not for rotations. Do the rotation on a copy of the original object and not the last rotated set. So you only get just one pre

launch process doesn't return info but it does keep track of the application running via the openedprocesses function. It has some interests but the shell is much more standard IMOHO... You can start a shell with the "start" (see start /? or /help) DOS command to make the shell return directly to
