Sparrowhawk's Profile
A profile... why not.
Some things I enjoy doing: reading, biking (off-road!), hiking in the mountains, anything with computers, er, most things really. I love to ski, and just wish I could go on a slope longer than 180 metres.
Partly inspired by enjoying DinkC coding, I went to college to learn a bit of Software Development and am now working with some local .NET developers, using VB and C#.
I have many things I should be doing so writing a profile seemed a good way of putting them off.
I live in northwest England (south originally), I have 3 cats, 1 rabbit and that's about it.
I'm making a D-Mod and have some ambitious ideas for future ones but don't expect anything soon!

Is this known? Did I know this before and have forgotten?
A custom procedure counts as a separate script? I've just spent ages debugging before discovering that using kill_this_task() just causes it to go back to the calling procedure within the same script...
Actually I seem to remember something now about it having a different script number. How annoying.

//Dink says "1, 2, 4"
void main (void)
{
say_stop("1", 1);
test();
//He shouldn't say this!
say_stop("4", 1);
}
void test (void)
{
say_stop("2", 1);
kill_this_task();
wait(1);
say_stop("3", 1);
