Hi,

In this file:
file:///c:/Program%20Files/LCSI/MicroWorlds%20Pro/Help/MWTopics/content/s3c3t2.htm

I found:

Instruction
set "t1 "on? "true

Equivalent to
clickon

Instruction
set "t1 "on? "false

Equivalent to
clickoff


Another similar way to what Jeff describes is:

Issue the following command in the Command Center:

turtlesown "open?


Modify the procedures in the following way:

to open_curtain
t1, setsh 21 wait 1
setsh 22 wait 1
setsh 23
setopen? "true
end

to close_curtain
t1, setsh 23 wait 1
setsh 22 wait 1
setsh 21
setopen? "false
end

to try
t1, ifelse open? [close_curtain][open_curtain]
end

then type the following command in the Command Center

open_curtain
