Why do consecutive msg commands bring up a popup menu ?

[Vertigo]

Topic contains my question. I just want to send two messages one after the other.

I'm trying this :

Code: Select all

msg hash(,,<curitem>,1);
msg hash(,<curitemprev>,1); 

[admin]

Do this :

Code: Select all

msg hash(,,<curitem>,1);
  msg hash(,<curitemprev>,1); 

Non-indented lines are interpreted as separate scripts. Any non-first line of a script has to be indented.

But the first line of the first (here: first and only) script may be indented, too.
(As long as it is not a caption - and then non-indentation makes sense...)

So I think it looks much better as:

Code: Select all

  msg hash(,,<curitem>,1);
  msg hash(,<curitemprev>,1); 

But it might also make sense to look like:

Code: Select all

  msg hash(,,<curitem>,1) . <crlf 2>
    . hash(,<curitemprev>,1);

Indeed, but to me this looks like a parsing bug. I would not count on this behavior in future.

Oh - then I was totally wrong here

Don't know why - but I assumed that only(!) a caption starts in column 1. So I started every non-first script in a file with a caption. (What really makes sense IMHO.)

But if a file only contains 1 script, or at least all other scripts are invisible, I normally started the first ("main") script without a caption, and in Col 4...

So to be really correct in syntax, and to avoit the non-indentation of the first command, it would be best to specify:

Code: Select all

"Main"
  msg hash(,,<curitem>,1);
  msg hash(,<curitemprev>,1);
 

I hope that's correct so far?

Yep, that's fine.
