Purge script not working
« on: June 04, 2019, 12:29:45 PM »
All,

Good afternoon. Can someone please tell me why this script isn't working? I am using Lee Mac's script writer. And if someone doesn't mind adding purging regapps, I would appreciate it.

_.open *file* -purge A  N _.close y

Thank you much,
David

What makes you think its not working? Can you purge the file normally without the script?

Try something like this .. you're forgetting the "*" in the prompts. This will do regapps as well.
Code - Auto/Visual Lisp: [Select]
  1. (defun _purge nil
  2.   (setvar 'cmdecho 0)
  3.   (foreach x '("_A" "_R") (command ".-purge" x "*" "_N"))
  4.   (setvar 'cmdecho 1)
  5.   (princ)
  6. )
  7. (_purge)

ronjonp,

Thank you for this but how will this work in a script file? I am using Lee Mac's script writer.

Make sure the sub is loaded then: _.open *file* (_purge) _.close y
