Think of the immediate mode window as a little scratch pad for testing code.
It's not a development environment. You can only execute one line of code at
a time. But you can use the colon (:) character as a virtual line separator.
Just remember how it works and it's a very productive tool. I've written
huge chunks of code in it, copied and pasted it into my actual IDE, then
just spent a few minutes making it look pretty.

Subject: Re: Maybe a small problem in Immed App
Hi!
I just did a test on that script and everything has to be on the same
line.
I did the standard enter and it performs the command of that line, so a do
while will have a loop error message
I also did the enter key for each line from the 10 key pad and if standard
keyboard enter is pressed after the loop it says loop without do
So, no matter what, the only way the do while would work is if it was all on
the same line.
This may be OK, but it makes for sloppy coding!
What if your function was long, sure makes a very long line doesn't it?
I would at least expect the last line of code would activate if the
keyboard enter was pressed instead of the 10 key pad enter.
Unless you have another way of doing a run?
Is there a command to run the code you entered?
Sincerely
Bruce

Well, it executes all the code that was under the cursor when enter was
pressed...not all the code in the Immed edit box. I'm sure that's what
you meant to say but just wanted to make it clear.

Pressing the standard enter key still runs everything that's in the

Hi:
If, as suggest in this thread, that the numpad enter key could be used
to test a large block of code, how do you then execute a multiline
block of code that you have just typed using the numpad enter key to
insert line breaks at the end of each line?

Hi, This is such a small problem I found, that I feel a bit foolish
for
writing about it.
I don't know if this is just happening on my system or if this is a
bug
with the App. So I thoug I would post it and let other people try
it to
see.
If you type
Print 1+2
and hit enter you get three.
However if you type that same command and hit enter on the numpad, you
get nothing.
At least, I don't.
