Re: [foxboro] Silence horns

Walter,
You can try the following in FoxDraw.  Build a button and as an operator 
action attach a display manager command like this

== 'COMPOUND:BLOCK.CIN' 1 script /opt/walter/my_script

This will run the script file if the COMPOUND:BLOCK.CIN is TRUE.  But it 
will only test the condition when the operator pushes the button.  As far 
as I know there is no way to constantly monitor a value and execute a 
script when an event is true from inside a graphic.  You could write a 
simple shell script that would do what you want by looping and checking the 
value, but there is some overhead associated with this.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
David
