Script opening script

[zera]

How can I open multiple scripts using a master script?

 

Example of what i have now:

 

;Master Script

 

script

"C:/Documents/Test1.scr"

script

"C:/Documents/Test2.scr"

script

"C:/Documents/Test3.scr"

 

Thanks, any help is appreciated,

when I last looked it was impossible. Calling a second script suspends the first one permanently.

 

There are ways round it but I can't remember what we used to do. I think the easiest was to wrap the calls into a LISP. Its a long time since I have used LISP but it was something like....

(c:defun Scripter
(command "script" "Test1.scr")
(command "script" "Test2.scr")
(command "script" "Test3.scr")
(princ)
)

 

then call scripter from the command line

I've done similar in the past on a toolbar button.

eg

 

^C^C filedia 0 scr script1 scr script2 scr script3 filedia 1

Dave,

The LISP loads successfully but just runs the last script in the line. Is there anyway to debug the lisp to run the scripts in succession?

 

(c:defun Scripter

(command "script" "Test1.scr")

(command "script" "Test2.scr")

(command "script" "Test3.scr")

(princ)

)

I would suggest checking where all your scripts are located? Maybe just test3.scr is in your local directory? when I try it from the command line it asks:

Enter script file name

Documents\Drawing1.scr>:

 

**make sure they are in the right directory?

TBH, its so long since I wrote LISP I can''t remember. I think I got it wrong above in that there should(?) be a () after Scripter in the first line.

 

And your script name can include the path you specified, UI was just being lazy.

 

Hopefully somebody with more experience will be along in a minute...

untested...

(defun c:Scripter ()
(command "script" "Test1.scr")
(command "script" "Test2.scr")
(command "script" "Test3.scr")
(princ)
)

(defun c:Scripter() ;is the first line that defines the new command Scripter

(command "script" "C:/Documents/Test1.scr") ; these next 3 lines call the script you need the file path

(command "script" "C:/Documents/Test2.scr")

(command "script" "C:/Documents/Test3.scr")

(princ)

)

;then call the command scripter from the command line
