What are the conditions for getting messages to the about window to show up from an agent script?The agent script must be selected in the about window popup. When you use thread.callScript to display a message, the msg verb is called from a different thread that is not an agent, so the message will show up.
What are the conditions under which an agent may fail?
An agent should only stop running if it throws a scripterror. However, there was at least one kernel bug affecting the reliability of agents. Frontier 6.2 will be much more stable in this regard.
