It is a Unix script, currently called via a foxview button , I would like
to include this in the sequence logic if possible.
The script utilizes  the "setpars"  tool found in /opt/fox/bin/tools.

If the operators can interact with the process, I recommend putting GDEV
blocks to AUTO (then WAIT 2 seconds for the block to see it) right before
you use each one.  It is the only way to be sure that the GDEV will be in
the correct auto/manual state when you need it to be.  If you are going to
change state on several GDEVs, then you can put them all to AUTO followed
by
only one WAIT statement.

If you want to call the script that you have already written, then I am
going to have flex a few thoughts to remember how to do that.  Depending on
how you wrote the UNIX script, I believe that it may be a more efficient
use
of resources to rewrite it in HLBL.  Is it a UNIX script, PERL, C code, or
--Heaven forbid-- JAVA?  (I am assuming UNIX.)  Does the script use Object
Manager calls or API calls?

I'm curious now.  Does any one know if HLBL is the most efficient use of
resources in this case?  Does anyone know how to call an external script
from within HLBL?

Thanks for the input,

I have a script that places all GDEV blocks in auto. How would you use this
in HLBL. I would like to place all GDEV's in auto at the beginning of the
Sequence Logic.

thanks in advance
