    You can always use _ALERT("Some random message") to pause lua execution.
    This just generates a message box with 'some random message' as the text,
    and waits for an OK to be pressed before continuing.
    (Note the _ALERT only does this on femm(pre/post) on other lua scripted apps
    _ALERT may be directed to stderr)

    The windowhide command for the postprocessor is reasonably experimental. On
    my 'slow' computer the window dosn't appear first it just runs hidden. As
    David M has said before this sort of information is essential to improving
    femm and making it extremely reliable.

    If I get let out of work this week !, I will have a look at these commands,
    to find out what has happened !

    Best Regards

    Robin Cornelius

    No, there are no tricks to it, Jim!

    I think that dr. David M. forgot to include this command in his
    version. I have
    noticed it, too. There are some other things missing as well. For
    example the
    add_contour() command does not display the contour line as it used to. The
    preprocessor argument "-windowhide" of the run_post() command works to some
    degree; the postprocessor window pops up any way, but hides immidietly. The
    same argument for preprocessor works as intended. I think, dr. David M. has
    already noticed these "undocumented features" and will include the
    corrections
    in the next release. I would like to encourage everyone to post theirs
    observations about the femm program. This will help dr. DM a lot.

    Does anyone know how to get X-Y Plots from the postprocessor?
    Thanks,
    Carl
