Purpose

Enable or disable the ’wait message’ after RUN / ! / !! Commands and RUN() function.


Syntax

SET RUNWAIT ON | OFF | (<expL>)


See Also

!, !!, DB_RUNLOG, DB_RUNOPTS, DB_RUNOPTS2, RUN, RUN(), SET RUNCLEAR


Description

The SET RUNWAIT command controls whether a wait message is displayed after execution of a RUN / ! / !! Command or RUN() function. By default SET RUNWAIT is OFF.

This command allows the optional logical expression <expL> to be evaluated. If a value of .T. is returned, RUNWAIT is set ON, otherwise it is set OFF.


Example

dialog message [Backup data tables to tape?]
if chr(lastkey()) = [Y]
    set runclear on
    set runwait on
    run tar cvf /dev/rmt0 *.db*
    set runwait off
    set runclear off
endif
