Besides, your $iif() is evaluating the condition in the current context (the calling script) and not in each connection's context (meaning window -c "status window" is never returned, since $network is always equal to %current in the current context). The following should work: Code: alias close.win { var %current = $network scon -at1 if ($network != % $+ current) window -c "status window" } 2) I'm not sure what you mean about the /timer. Wouldn't eg /timer 1 5 close.win do the job? /.timerQ 1 0 echo /.timerQ 1 0 $timer(Q).com
