how to stop chat notecard script at any time

Hi,

I'm having some problems with this script, as you can see it reads the lines in a notecard, activated by chat command. This is working fine but, i can't figure out how to stop it at any time.

note: there is a llSleep between the lines (I think that's the problem for not stop reading)

Help would be welcome

string STOP_MESSAGE = "STOP";
string START_MESSAGE = "START";
string gName = "Testnotecard";
integer COMMAND_CHANNEL = 101;
integer gLine = 0;
key gQueryID;

default {

state_entry() {

llListen(COMMAND_CHANNEL, "", NULL_KEY, "" );
}

listen( integer chan, string name, key id, string msg )

{
if (llToUpper( msg) == START_MESSAGE )
{
gQueryID = llGetNotecardLine(gName, gLine);
}
else if ( llToUpper(msg) == STOP_MESSAGE)
{
//some stop action, but how?
}
}

dataserver(key query_id, string data) {
if (query_id == gQueryID) {
if (data != EOF) {
llSay(0, (string)data);
++gLine;
llSleep(3.0);
gQueryID = llGetNotecardLine(gName, gLine);
}
}
}
}

THis isn't the best possible method, but it works:

string STOP_MESSAGE = "STOP";
 string START_MESSAGE = "START";
 string gName = "Testnotecard";
 integer COMMAND_CHANNEL = 101;
 integer gLine = 0;
 key gQueryID;
 integer reading = FALSE;
 
 default
 {
 	state_entry()
 	{
 		llListen(COMMAND_CHANNEL, "", NULL_KEY, "" );
 	}
 
 	listen( integer chan, string name, key id, string msg )
 	{
 		if (llToUpper( msg) == START_MESSAGE )
 		{
 			reading = TRUE;
 			gQueryID = llGetNotecardLine(gName, gLine);
 		}
 		else if ( llToUpper(msg) == STOP_MESSAGE)
 		{
 			reading = FALSE;
 		}
 	}
 
 	dataserver(key query_id, string data)
 	{
 		if (query_id == gQueryID)
 		{
 			if (data != EOF && reading)
 			{
 				llSay(0, (string)data);
 				++gLine;
 				llSleep(3.0);
 				gQueryID = llGetNotecardLine(gName, gLine);
 			}
 		}
 	}
 }

it's working ...

I added gLine = 0; so it will start on top of notecard when activating it again.

string STOP_MESSAGE = "STOP";
string START_MESSAGE = "START";
string gName = "Testnotecard";
integer COMMAND_CHANNEL = 101;
integer gLine = 0;
key gQueryID;
integer reading = FALSE;

default
{
state_entry()
{
llListen(COMMAND_CHANNEL, "", NULL_KEY, "" );
}

listen( integer chan, string name, key id, string msg )
{
if (llToUpper( msg) == START_MESSAGE )
{
reading = TRUE;
gQueryID = llGetNotecardLine(gName, gLine=0); // gLine=0 to start on top of notecard
}
else if ( llToUpper(msg) == STOP_MESSAGE)
{
reading = FALSE;
}
}

dataserver(key query_id, string data)
{
if (query_id == gQueryID)
{
if (data != EOF && reading)
{
llSay(0, (string)data);
++gLine;
llSleep(3.0);
gQueryID = llGetNotecardLine(gName, gLine);
}
}
}
