Skill to run multiple script (.scr) or multiple skill files

EdwinB

Hi,

Is there a way to run several script files as Skill or one skill file to run multiple skill files?

If so, how do you do this?

Currently, I'm running two skill files as a script file but would prefer to use one skill file to run multiple skill files or one skill file to run multiple script files.

Thanks,

Eddie

  • Thanks Dave,

    Yes, that works but is there a way create a skill function for it? Reason for it is, I created a Custom menu in Allegro Editor to load the skill file and would like to call the funstions from there. I also created a script file (.scr) to run the two .il files but not sure how to call it via a skill code. Would be good to get your input on this too Dave.

    Here's my scr file:

    # Allegro script
    # file: D:/Design/run ref_des-textBlk report.scr
    # start time: Wed Nov 01 11:02:26 2017
    # Version: 16.6-2015 S100 (v16-6-112HL) Windows 32
    version 16.6

    setwindow pcb
    trapsize 9147
    ifp
    report_textblock
    ifp
    srd save
    ifp

    # stop time: Wed Nov 01 11:02:54 2017


    Thanks,
    Edwin.
  • You don't need a script file.
    Just create a Skill function with the commands and call that from your custom menu command.
