AW: "cant do that"-troubles

["Till Franitza" <xfa-at-isw.uni-stuttgart.de>]

Hi Ryan!
"i have written a tcl-script that loads and starts a program all the time
again and again."

now a longer explanation(I have appended my script now):
vitrine.tcl looks at the Parallel port. if a certain bit is high and a
certain time has passed, ncstart.tcl is started. ncstart.tcl uses the emcsh
to make the emc open vshow.nc aund run it.
the problem is (or might be) that the program is opened and started before
the emc has finished executing the last one. An error message occurs and is
ignored, because nobody is there to see it. That is why i have used the
script. Now the question is if it is possibly a problem not to click the
massage away. Can some message queues overflow in that case? Will the emc go
on running with the error message present?
I have another suspicion that has to do with the servotogo drivers. I will
send it in a seperate mail.
Regards,
Till
