How do I get script to keep running instead of waiting for a Func to complete?

[zasxes]

How do I get the while look to continue to loop and not wait for the Test func to complete. Can the Test() func be called while it is already running?

$Test = 0

While 1
$Test = $Test+1
Sleep (3000)
Test($Test)
WEnd
Exit


Func Test($1)
IniWrite("C:\Temp\mytest.ini", "section2", @HOUR & ":" & @MIN & ":" & @SEC, "Event Start = " & $1)
Sleep (5000)
IniWrite("C:\Temp\mytest.ini", "section2", @HOUR & ":" & @MIN & ":" & @SEC, "Event End = " & $1)
EndFunc

I think what you have would work, except it seems rather pointless... This will just keep on overlapping itself until their are tons of function Test() waiting to to the second part of the IniWrite().

You can not multi thread so you can't do 2 things at exactly the same time, there are various methods fro trying to fake multi threading using methods from posting gui messages to tcp/ip to text files to communicate between the 2 scripts.

Search for +multi +threading

And there's always the option of using AutoItX3.dll in a language with multi-threaded capability. But that could be a whole other set of headaches.
