R> can that be explained more? what external feeding of commands is R> it looking for? TB can be driven using IPC (Inter Program Communications) via a disk file called TheBat.IPC. Commands can be written to this file by any application and TB will read them and execute them. R> should I have a file called "thebat.ipc??. Not unless / until you have commands to send to TB from the outside. R> and can this function be turned off? No. But then checking a file once every 10 seconds is not a particularly heavy overhead. Unless you're running from a floppy drive. R> is it a needed function? Yes. R> i don't understand the purpose of it. I hope that helps clear it up a bit for you. - -- Cheers -- .\\arck D Pearlstone -- List moderator TB! v1.63 Beta/11 on Windows XP 5.1.2600 Service Pack 1 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPsdk version 1.7.1 (C) 1997-1999 Network Associates, Inc. and its affiliated companies. iQA/AwUBPysGHjnkJKuSnc2gEQLmdQCg/XfmouCbbRIRe3ArYFpUQ1UXQgAAn1Pq zItAiDCkRRP8lRLEsk+phzeE =N8E5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.62r | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
