z is only interpreted in the score, not a realtime event. Use -1 instead.

Hello Csound,

I'm pretty new and trying to fire an infinite long event on the fly using "z" with event and scoreline, just as I do in a hard-coded score, but couldn't get it working.

According to the manual, I understand that 

• I cannot pass "z" to the event opcode because it does not accept strings there.
• I also tried to combine sprintfk and scoreline in the following way: 

String sprintfk {{i %d 0 z}}, gkinstr

scoreline String, 1

The code runs, but my instrument wasn't triggered unless I replace z with a number, 

in the console I see the following log:

i 10 0 z

          ^

... looking like an error indication, without other clues.

What am I missing?

Thanks,

Beinan
