I think also, but when I was looking for a simple piece of code we discover the enormous amount of freedom in Kixtart syntax.
A simple type-error creates:

  • an endless loop
  • an automatic reboot
  • a DrWatson error

By a short program it isn't difficult to repair. By Windows NT you can mostly easily end the task. By Windows 9x you must reboot it.
When it only runs on mine system it isn't a problem, but company width this kind of errors can be a disaster.
So, Mark's question was an interesting study.
Greetings.

BTW: a simple script is when it is one line. see last piece of code. Mark's didn't ask for something which isn't possible to maintain.
A new version we can run is:

code:

begin.
욖锡깿х侙߷̌–ˑҴ臑ᓰ<
׎뿉Œ髸⁊݁ɧьʟĪ<
૵ݛء٘帑śꮣ☏ǣӉ<
΋¼ս̒弬ȂݙнՌ<
ԗ靧;䯔όƐ<
Ŕҫ于ٌĴ΅ќ쾯䷨ή<
ꊿ۟ŐՔܕ<
end: completed.


  • it isn't readable.
  • can not be changed.
  • you can protect is to run on other servers and workstations.
