alias which worked perfectly before now kaput
 
Ok, I have no idea what changed in it, but I had an alias which would start a command sequence. all it did was perform one act, wait until I can perform the next, then do the next on the list. basically in was several commands all with #wait inbetween each. Worked for a few months, but now, for some reason, it will only perform the first command on the list and fail to deliver the rest. I don't know why, and I recieved no error message. Anyone have something similar happen?

checked in there and it seems alot of aliases which use #wait suddenly aren't working. Is there perhaps something I might have switched which killed #wait? Shocked

ok, I'll see if I can the alias itself, just to see if anyone can see an obvious error (though since it worked all this time before, I don't see why there would be one)

There's no command or preference setting which affects #WAIT in an alias. Do you use #WAIT in triggers as well? If so, one of them is probably firing when the tethsteed alias gets called. The #WAIT in the trigger is what stops the alias, as #WAIT in triggers stops everything from processing (a more appropriate name would be #LAG).
