Re: Mail Program

A possibility: SENDING outputs error information to (presumably) the
console. OPERATOR'S will set the thread's output vectors to use the
console window:

: FOOBAR CR ." Init Thread"
   FORKS> OPERATOR'S
   CR ." New Thread Started"
   BEGIN CR ." Wait a sec" 1000 MS AGAIN ;=20

Note: the font may be incorrect causing some line overlap.

If all else fails, you could now add status messages to show you
SENDING's progress.

Good luck,
Mike

Subject: [sftalk] Mail Program

I have an application where I want to send email alerts when an
instrument has a warning or alarm.=20

I basically am using the Sendmail.f program but message selection is
based upon an external event. I am trying to call it by implementing a
FORK thread. The event causes the thread to run.

The program does NOT execute properly from the thread. I can manually
type SENDING from the command line and it works properly.=20

Does anyone have any ideas about the cause? I am sure it must be simple.
