input

I am using input as a new example script !

dear guys of universe, what`s shortest way to get more infos about the content of script ? Meaning: "File save" with whole content of script I haven`t managed, although read the help manual. Any other short way to get the result ? little help would be nice.

salud. lydia.

new script here. I will try to upload new one. my internet connection was interrupted five times a day :(

Lydia,

what do you mean by "File save" with whole content of script"?
Do you mean to save the whole conversation with PC, or resaving script source code (why this :))?

hello petr, no, simple like to save the script with File_save, "resaving script source code". I need open file, get it and then save it, I can imagine. :) My idea will be to build new inkey input with password, then start my particle example or another script. see you, thanks. lydia

Does my example at the bottom of page not help enough ?

no! better would be to read aloud for me :)

found your file example in manual. uses "file" infos. and save options. sometimes I think it's better to make it easier. one task, one script. you have done "file" all-in-one-infos. good. but my sister sylvia doesn't understand it. she's also intelligent ;) I tried to explain her. nothing against your work. I think it's often better to make it easier for beginner to learn with scripts. there are a lot of modules. damned! meaning what I say. I have found my solution I intended for. see my first post. thanks michael.

It doesnt get much easier than that example, what would you have a single line?

FILE_SAVE("c:\test.txt","my test string")

not really much of an example it doesnt teach anyone anything about file handling.

But I'm glad you solved your problem.

michael, can you check my script in first post ? Can you do some critics ? :) anybody else ? would be nice. better to learn with feedback.
nice sunny day, lydia

it all looks ok to me only one line not required.

Status = FILE_Seek (FileHandle, 15)

This tells windows to point to byte 15 of the file, all you do is close it so its not required.
