Show / Showp doesn't work
 
Suddenly they stopped working in triggers -
Code:
#win "windowname" TEXT

works,
Code:
#sh TEXT

doesn't. Looks like it tries to send it to incorrect window perhaps? Can anyone assist with fixing that?

#SHOW and #SHOWP will default to the main window, as they have no context to do otherwise on their own.
If you were expecting otherwise that is likely the issue

#WIN will push text, as you figured out, but to push a prompt you would need to do something like:

#EXECWIN windowname {#SHOWPROMPT text}

also, there is no need to put windowname in quotes here, unless it is a complex string
