Hi Mac People...

I just got Microphone II version 3.0 for my Mac.  I'm having problems
in a script capturing incoming text into either variables or a file.
Here's the script...

  Send Text String "'MLS,ALL,ACTIVE^M^J'"
  Set Variable * msgs from Expression "0"
  While Expression "msgs < 5"
   Set Variable * buf[msgs] from Expression "TheLine( CURSORROW )"
   Set Variable * msgs from Expression "msgs+1"
   Send Text String "'^F'"
  End While
  Send Text String "'^C'"
  Set Variable * max_msg from Expression "msgs"
  Set Variable * msgs from Expression "0"
  While Expression "msgs < max_msg"
   Send Local to Screen "buf[msgs]"
   Set Variable * msgs from Expression "msgs+1"
  End While


The script seems to execute without doing anything. The lines output show
up after the script finishes.  

Text capture also seems unreliable.  Sometimes the capture finishes before
it should and other times it doesn't capture anything at all.  (this is from 
a script.)

Anyone have any Ideas ?
