This shows, in seconds, how often the autoSave script is performed. The script is saved automatically in your User directory as autoSave1.shk, autoSave2.shk, and so on, up to autoSave5.shk. It then recycles back to 1. If you lose a script because Shake unexpectedly quits, you can load in the autoSave version. Four other autosave behaviors can be customized within a .h preference file. Autosave Directory In the startup directory: script.autoSaveDirectory = "//myMachine/myAccount/myDirectory/"; Setting a directory with this declaration overrides the default behavior of placing autosave scripts in ~/nreal/autosave/.. Autosave Prefix In the startup directory: script.autoSavePrefix = "MySweetScripts"; Defines text to be prepended to autosave script names. This is blank by default. Autosave File Count In the startup directory: script.autoSaveNumSaves = 20; Sets the total number of autosave scripts to be saved. Files are discarded on a first in, first out basis. The default autoSaveNumSaves value is 5. Undo Level Number In the ui directory: gui.numUndoLevels= 100; This determines how many steps of undo are available. Undo scripts are stored in the TEMP directory. Amount of Processors to Assign to the Interface In the ui directory: sys.maxThread = nrcGetAvailableProcessors(); This sets the number of processors when using the interface. The nrcGetAvailableProcessors automatically calculates and assigns all of them. If you only want to use a limited number of processors, assign that number here. You can assign the number of processors to be used when batch processing with the -cpus flag. The default is 1. For example: shake -exec my_script.shk -cpus 2 368 Chapter 14 Customizing Shake
