I've searched the archives and have not come across anything that looks like the right solution for this... I'm scripting Graphic Converter to acquire an image via twain, and I need my script to wait for the scan to complete before trying to write the file. The delay command won't work because it pauses the whole computer: when it ends, Graphic Converter still isn't ready to accept more instructions and the script dies.
Please send me your favorite strategy for waiting. Thanks!
Jason
