Yes Tom,
But, a minor enhancement like I mentioned would be great and easier for
test coding. After all, the 10 key pad enter breaks the lines. Then why not
have either the enter key on the last line from the keyboard or just a ctrl T
key to test run what you wrote.
Having a clear scratch pad to write and test is much nicer and easier to
debug then one long line of code.
Maybe someone will add that some day soon.

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.
Hth,
Tom

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.
