I do it regularly here on OS 9. Interleaving occurs on the worksheet that called the other worksheet to be executed in full. Of course OS 9 doesn't have an executable bit. All text files are executable in MPW. One thing I like to do is to make the first few lines in scraps of C code separated off by #IFDEF nonsense commands EXIT #ENDIF Those commands can be the call to a compiler and linker so executing the C source code amounts to a compilation with all the libraries I need. And yes I can use BBEdit 6.5 to create those scripts too. And there was a time when BBEdit worksheets were plain text. The XML bit using both 0A and 0D line ends is a PITA that I think I shall never discover a reason for. You can't even open them as plain files in BBEdit. -- --> Use vowels every day or you'll get consonated <-- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "BBEdit Talk" discussion group on Google Groups.
