You can do it here but we should follow the forum rules
Arexx commands that are supposed to return values, never return the value which leaves the calling program waiting for a response.
Example using ARexxConsole:
no port > \port mplayer.1
---------------------------------------------------
Found ARexx port name >MPLAYER.1<
===================================================
MPLAYER.1> \DIAG
---------------------------------------------------
Turning ON diagnostics printouts
===================================================
MPLAYER.1> GET_TIME_POS
cmd ->GET_TIME_POS
---------------------------------------------------
Checking for port_name ->MPLAYER.1
sending ARexx message
ARexx message sent, waiting for reply
The reply never comes and the Arexx port seems to be locked up because even performing CTRL-C in the ARexxConsole program is not able to abort the waiting for reply like it should.
This seems to happen for all ARexx commands that are supposed to return a value.
