I have some questions about a project that I am currently working on. I am most certainly an autoit noob, so bear with me here.
Essentially what I want to do is open up a telnet session (I can do this with console telnet perfectly). Perform some functions, then wait. It might take up to 2 hours for the process to complete, then log back into the telnet app, and perform another function and wait again for another 15 minutes.
My question for this part is what adverse effects might an extended (2 hours) sleep have? Is it better to just create a script for each function and run them with task scheduler?
Secondly, the second part of this process requires entering in an incremental number which increments every time I run the first function. What is the best way of going about keeping track of this incrementing number?
Thanks!
