[comp.sys.amiga] First argument getting eaten

yorkw@stable.ecn.purdue.edu (Willis F York) (01/07/91)

Well I have been having a little weirdness of late.
Set up:
A500,2.5Meg,1.2KS,1.3wb,(NOT 1.3.2) Wshell,conman,arp commands.

I used the program Custreq like so.

CustReq Ignored RUN_VLT Run_IT Don't_Run -d 1 -t 5 
;       ^^^^^^^ 
If WARN                                        
    Echo "Loading VLT"                           
    rb vlt48:vlt                                 
 EndIf

as a little script to get executed, the "IGNODRED" word MUST be there
for the command to work correctly on my system, If i leave it out then 
CustREQ ACTS like it got the line below

CustReq Run_IT Don't_Run -d 1 -t 5

ie. It'll "eat" the "RUN_VLT" message, and put the "RUN_IT" as the message
and "DOn't run" as the left button and "-d" as the Right!

Ie. It Eats, the first argument, and then works on the rest..


Does anyone know WHY?   I' remember having this problem with ARC, and ZOO
a long time ago, but it "Disapeared" 

I THink this is a Problem with WSHELL...
(It's dang annoying)
