make a check box button
on mouseup
callMyStackScriptTimer
end mouseUp
on callMyStackScriptTimer waitSecs
if waitSecs is empty then put 10 into waitSecs
if the hilight of btn "timerStatus" is true then
-- do these commands
send "callMyStackScriptTimer" in waitSecs seconds
end if
end callMyStackScriptTimer
--now the script can be called by different routines
--setting the hilight of the check box will stop any 'send in' calls
--obviously, if your mouseup turns off the check box, the loop will
skip the tasks
This is just one way of accomplishing the task.

Hi Klaus,
yes I tried it already with ditto, but my Win7 machine started

making funny noise!
Using "send in" in a self calling handler to get the infinite "loop"
or what
would be the calling handler?
Thanks
Tiemo

Betreff: Re: How to implement a timebased reminder?
Hi Tiemo,
Hello,
I would like to create a timebased reminder (like a reminder from a
calendar
app), which runs the whole day "in the background"/ as a task icon
(windows)
or gadget and reminds me in settable intervals about anything.
How do you realize this kind of app with using a minimum of the
processor
power? Using idle and idlerate or any kind of loop or perhaps
something
completely different?
Do not use IDLE!
Which would be the less consuming approach?
Any hint welcome
this also can be done with "ditto" :-D
No, just kidding, use "send ... in... " for this purpose!
