Any idea why at times I have so many windows left open. I have only 11
scripts running off this computer. Is it possible the scripts would
clash
with each other and stop processing? Each script has it's own
hotfolder to
process from.
Couldn't say for certain without looking at the scripts.
11 is not a large number of scripts, but, on the other hand, you can
have conflicts with just two scripts.
If you have two scripts watching two folders and in each case they
open documents in the same application, you're likely to have conflicts.
Once a document opens in an application, it has no special binding or
relationship to the script that opened it, so another script,
thinking it's working on another document opened by the same
application could close it or change it or error out.
To resolve this you'll need some kind of scripting management scheme,
or at least have each script wait until the application has no open
documents before proceeding. Also you may want to look at the
structure of the scripts so that if they encounter an error the close
open documents rather than just quit.
