That is what my tests today showed.
With this, I'll have macros that will be running in a loop for about 50-200
times.
For each, I need only one "INPUT 1" statement at the end to update the
screen. Up until that point, using a multitude of INPUT 0s works fine. 1 of
my projects will need to update the screen twice.
I ran one today a few times in a loop of 119 times. Worked perfectly.
Though I wish you could allow for fractions of a second. Or an instaneous
forced update command.
That would be my wish list for Version 3.0.
But this so far has helped me a lot. Thanks.
