FlieLaunch behavior
      #782 - 07/06/08 11:37 AM

I've been using Mousetamer script starting with a FileLaunch statement which starts a DOS loop. My original idea was that nousetamer script would wait until the DOS loop completed. However, it seems that the mousetamer script just keeps going without waiting for the DOS loop to complete. Is this the normal behavior of FileLaunch?

Yes. Mouse Tamer will basically make a system call to ask the system to launch the external program and then continue on with the next action. The external program is an independent process and will not be tied to the Mouse Tamer process at all. You may want to use a MT pause action to allow for adequate time for the other program to launch if you need to wait for it before moving on.
