I have start_sim.do. It takes multiple minutes etc...I want to be able to cancel or pause it before it comes across any compile errors....enabling me to fix them on the fly
In that case in your TCL script you can use the command:
onerror - specifies one or more commands to be executed when a Tcl command in a dofile encounters an error; not dependent on a run command
I have found myself using the up /down arrows in the transcript and sometimes selecting the wrong do file.
I wanted to know if I could then kill the run of the do file. (like ctrl+C or ctrl+z in Linux)
In addition a pause feature would be nice ...however what tricky dicky mentioned about splitting the do file into multiple smaller do files is probably best.
