Messages cause "Press space bar to continue." in TTY mode

[D.Cook]

I was expecting an easy way to prevent pausing every time the MESSAGE-AREA fills up in character mode. I just want to keep outputting messages to the user without the process being interrupted.

I tried PAUSE 0 after each MESSAGE statement, and HIDE MESSAGE before each MESSAGE statement, no luck yet.

try ...

STATUS DEFAULT "aaaa".
STATUS INPUT "ssss".

or .... STATUS INPUT OFF.

You could also try

PAUSE 0 BEFORE-HIDE NO-MESSAGE.

That way you should never ever be bothered again ...

Heavy Regards, RealHeavyDude.

check before-hide option on pause statement...

pause 0 before-hide.

You have to create 1 window with message area as a minimum.
If you use default window, progress will stop process every time you fill 2 lines of area.

Thanks guys, PAUSE 0 BEFORE-HIDE does the trick.
