Hi, this may sound like a dumb question, but I have a script that runs an exw.
script (cascading scripts?) anyway, the .ex colsole does not close on it's own
and the calling script waits until it is closed to continue...question, how do I
make the window close automatically? something like close(fn)

Try adding
if graphics_mode(-1) then end if
at the end of the .ex script

Hi, I recently posted a ? about my script not closing its console window cause a
calling script to hang..
it was suggested to use the statement if graphic_mode(-1)
I tried this with no effect, is there a way for a exw.exe script to not open a
console window?
This script does not seek user input via console, te the window opens and waits
for the enter key to be struck...odd behavior....any suggections?
Bernie

Hi Vern,
Try free_console()

Executing free_console() in dll.e should make your
console window go away, although it will come back again
if your program does any console I/O.
A console window appears automatically in a
Windows Euphoria program whenever you print to
the screen with printf(), puts() etc., input text from the
keyboard using gets(), getc() etc. or you call
clear_screen(), position() or any function that
interacts with the DOS-style console in some way.
You'll also get a console window if your program
gets error or warning messages from Euphoria.
You can always shut off warnings by saying:
without warning
at the top of your program.
GUI programs normally don't use any DOS-style
console I/O routines. They use the routines supplied by
Win32Lib (or some other GUI library) to interact with the user.

free_console() worked, don't know why I never thought of it before, thank
you :)
