how do i get my script to repeat

Asked by Eric Hendrix

actually i have two questions and as i am a beginner i dont understand much if any of the programming code.
i am writing a script for a game and want my script to repeat itself every 45 mins or so but have no clue how to do this.
the second question is after i finish designing my script is how do i make it executable? i know i can save it but where do i go from there?

There is no real executable (as a beginner, you should just forget this), it is only a zipped .sikuli folder.

If you are ready with your script and do not want to run it in the IDE anymore, you might run it from a command line using Sikuli-IDE-w.bat (no extra command line window, no print output visible) or Sikuli-IDE.bat (see http://sikuli.org/docx/faq/010-command-line.html)

Can you help with this problem?
