Sleep
Sleep automatically appends a "Wait..." to the Details window. Is this really necessary, though? If you call sleep a bunch of times in a row because you are polling you keep adding more and more Wait... entries to the details window, which makes it a chore to scroll through and read. If you wanted the same behavior you could put a DetailPrint "Wait..." each time you call Sleep and that would produce the same results. Just wondering what people think, I'm removing the automatic Wait... so that I don't end up with 500 entries while polling, I'm just printing one message that says I'm waiting for the program to load or close.

Thanks.

Try using:

SetDetailsPrinttextonly

Sleep500

SetDetailsPrintboth

Actually this makes sense, it really shouldn't have to print "Wait.." .. I'll update sometime..
