How to invoke OCEAN script by SKILL?

[Dmitriy Shurin]

Hi!
I have an OCEAN script which i have to automate by adding a menu that
i've written in SKILL. The problem is that i don't know whether there is
a possibility of invoking OCEAN script by SKILL and if i load SKILL from
OCEAN by writing:
..
..
..
load "skill.il"
..
..
..
OCEAN gets only initial values that it gets from the menu and therefore
the values remain unchanged.
So i wonder whether there is any way to overcome the problem.
Any help will be appreciated.

Hi fogh!
Thank you for your advice. Right now im not at work, but i've tried in
the form to do the following:
?callback "load("oceanscript.ocn")"
but i get an error message. Will load through a procedure work?

I think your error message is because you have to escape the quotes with
backslashes in a string : "load(\"oceanscript.ocn\")". Otherwise, think
it should work.

Dmitriy,

Sorry if the previous answer was shortish. Here is a little more.

Suppose your ocean script is "/home/joe/oceanscript.ocn"
You can define a callback function
procedure( MyOceanLoadingCallback()
load("/home/joe/oceanscript.ocn")
)

and then create a menu entry using stg like:
hiCreateMenuItem( ?name 'MyOceanLoadingMenuItem ?itemText "My first sony" ?callback "MyOceanLoadingCallback()" )

Your question is rather murky to me.
Just see ocean as being a superset of SKILL.
