Hi,
I'm using a batch file (startup.pro) containing a single call to .compile looking like this:
.compile 'file1', $
'file2', $
'file3'
If I do '@startup.pro' from the command line I get a syntax error. What continuation line should this command use?
Thanks,
Seb

I don't think there is a continuation character for executive commands.
At least I haven't seen it.
