I am getting error messages that state something about a script executed in a loop being too long. Is there a maximum script length? Or am I running into a memory leek or something?

Thanks!

Thanks. Happily in my case I am a verbose comment writer so my immediate problem is fixed by making comments more terse. It shouldn't be too much trouble to simplify some things using subprograms, too.

Or does the interpreter strip comments from the input script before it does anything else. If I wrote the code, that is what I would do so maybe origin does that?

A labtalk script is first broken down into sentences separated by ';' and then each sentence was stripped off comments and fed into the interpreter. The problem is that the code was written 10 years ago and have been patched over and over again so that we have finally decided best not touch it.

Origin 7.0 introduces Origin C, so all these limitations are gone.
