Hello! I'm having some troubles with TWX and can't seem to get help elsewhere. Here's my problem: if I use the following simple script:

send "tnt118*"
halt

from a planet, all I see as getting sent is the T, then the script terminates without doing what I wanted (which was to get 18 fuel ore!)

I think that either the script is running too fast, sending commands faster than TW is willing to accept them, or that it interprets and begins running the send command, and before that's done it reaches the halt command and stops sending them. Could someone point me either to a basic language reference or tell me what I'm doing wrong here?

Ideally, of course, I'm looking to do this:

send "tnt118*q1*yyl1*t*2891yyl3*snl3*"

which would be one round of colonizing between planet 1 in sector 1 and planet 3 in sector 2891.

Help! :)
