Hi,
I am running ping in the shell via applescript, to identify if a certain device is alive.
This takes time. I have limited it with the -t option to stop it taking for-ever.
However, it still takes some seconds to run (I have limited to 4 seconds).
Question: What happens to other indigo events while an applescript runs - do they get queued or ignored?
Particularly when shell commands are called.
Until I added the -t option to my ping, I was seeing some weird happenings with some events.
I have seen an alternate note that suggests implementing my script outside Indigo and telling Indigo the result.
I would like to avoid having to chron etc as it somewhat obfuscates my setup as well makes remote admin slightly more complex.
Thanks
