Yes, that seems to do it also. But so now here's my stupid question...
what is the command to ECS in a script.
I tried ^C^C
I tried ESC
I tried CANCEL
Commander,
Typically one does not use escape in a script. From Help:
Each line of the script file contains a command. Each blank space in a script file is significant because SPACEBAR is accepted as a command or data field terminator. You must be very familiar with the sequence of prompts to provide an appropriate sequence of responses in the script file.
NoteKeep in mind that prompts and command names may change in future releases, so you may need to revise your scripts when you upgrade to a later version of this program. For similar reasons, avoid the use of abbreviations; future command additions might create ambiguities.
A script can execute any command at the command prompt except a command that displays a dialog box. In most cases, a command that displays a dialog box has an alternative version of the command that displays command prompts instead of a dialog box.
Script files can contain comments. Any line that begins with a semicolon (
is considered a comment, and it is ignored while the script file is being processed. The last line of the file must be blank.
All references to long file names that contain embedded spaces must be enclosed in double quotes. ...A script is treated as a group, a unit of commands, reversible by a single U command. However, each command in the script causes an entry in the undo log, which can slow script processing. If you like, you can use UNDO Control None to turn off the undo feature before running the script, or you can write it at the beginning of the script itself. Remember to turn it back on (UNDO Control All) when the script is finished.
Instead one would 'enter' through until the end of the desired command or action had been executed. Sort of like the first rule of writing a script; is to know all of the command actions, and prompts as well as the objects you want to action on prior to writing the script.
