lines. However it is not practical to have too many lines and a limit of 30
lines should be considered, not as a system limit but as a warning that the
application is not correct.

How do I create reports and HTML reports?
CX-Supervisor provides a simple yet powerful report generation facility.
Using the same 'Points Substitution' format, a text based template file may
be used to generate a report. Good formats are .TXT, .RTF and .HTML.
Binary formats like Word .DOC can be problematic although RTF can
usually be used in these cases.
These generated files may then be viewed, or distributed using a file
server or web server. Note that although information may be textual or
graphical in nature these reports are intended for non real-time output of
data only, and not for monitoring or control.
See documentation for "GenerateReport" script function for more
information, and the "Coffee Tutorial" Step 12 in the CX-Supervisor
Getting Started Manual.

How do I make an HTML report update and refresh automatically?
CX-Supervisor supports the generation of dynamic text and HTML reports
from a static template - see "GenerateReport" script function for details.
However, Web Browsers views all pages as static pages. There is a very
simple HTML trick that will force the browser to reload or "Refresh" the
HTML
report
that
GenerateReport had been called again e.g. On Condition when the data
changes.
To an existing HTML page add the following line. This must be inserted
between the <head> and </head> markers:
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="5; url=Report.htm">
This will force the page to be reloaded, every 5 seconds. The value after
the content= (e.g. "5") is the refresh rate in seconds. Be aware that 5
seconds may practically be the fastest update, as some pages may take
