Did you even read what I wrote?

The moment one step does NOT work in the command sequence, you need to
alter your next move. No script can be prepared for all the things
that can happen. Which is why everyone is recommending you NOT to run
things in a script.

Also, please keep the mailing list in the loop, to help other people
asking the same question.
