Hi Guys,
Mind if I add my 2 cents.
I don't know why we do it but we always seem to keep our broken probe tips, perhaps it is to teach us a lesson or so we don't forget.
Anyway, i can't remember which Mach revision started it all but since then every Macro / Script needs a "while.....wend" between every write and every check to keep the CE speed in line with Mach execution. As Ian has said, without it the code will be unpredictable (work just fine on one machine but not on another and even then you can't count on it).
I have a sneaky suspicion that when we all eventually agree on this - Version 4 will come along and change everything.
Tweakie.
