BatLib Ideas/Wishlist

Yeah, I think in that case, Crazy is easier I'll see if I can, because that would be cool!

[Ashbad]

Hmm.. Maybe string compression and decompression? that would actually be quite cool

[Xeda112358]

I have actually been meaning to add my own form of string compression and decompression. It is the same method I used in BASIC/Celtic 3 once upon a time...

[Munchor]

Zeda, shouldn't this topic be merged with the 'Ideas' one?

[Xeda112358]

Yeah, probably. At the time I was thinking Ideas was going to be more for practical ideas to bounce around whereas this topic was for me to get a feel for what people wanted, but they can probably get merged, I guess

[ztrumpet]

These topics were easy to merge, as they were both in the same board.   Yay!
How about an Input routine that's limited to only the letters A-Z?

[Xeda112358]

Hm, I might be able to accomplish that with a little time! I'll work on it!

How do If's work in Recode?

Code: Select All | Copy To Clipboard

1 2 3 4

If A=4 Disp "HELLO End

Is it like that, like in Axe? Or does it require the crappy Then?

[Xeda112358]

No, using the If command in ReCode is like using the BASIC If command. If you have one line of code following, just do:

Code: Select All | Copy To Clipboard

1 2 3

If A=4 Disp 0,0,HELLO

If you have multiple lines of code, then you do:

Code: Select All | Copy To Clipboard

1 2 3 4 5 6 7

If A=4 Then Line(0,96,0,64,2 DispGraph Disp 0,0,HELLO End

However, some commands can appear on the same line. Unfortunately, DispGraph, Full, log(Text(, and anything using a string of data need a newline token after them. Still, if you wanted to, you could do:

Code: Select All | Copy To Clipboard

1 2 3

If A=3 Line(0,96,0,64,2 DispGraph

All I did there was use a space before the DispGraph command, so it is all on one line

[Munchor]

I'd rather just use the first two samples of code.

1line    -1 if  - 0 then - 0 ends
>1 line - 1 if - 1 then - 1 end


EDIT:

Will you make dim(1) disable run indicator and "Done" message? Thanks, like DiagnosticOff in Axe.

[Xeda112358]

Yes, I will add that In fact, I just added it and saved it

[Munchor]

Nice

Line(0,96,0,64,2

What does the 2 at the end do?

[Munchor]

Line(0,96,0,64,2

What does the 2 at the end do?

It's the rectangle type.

You should read the ReCode readme

type 1 - black
type 2 - inverted
...
type 6 - borders only
...

I should.   I've been really busy recently, though, so... </lame excuse>
Yeah, I should.
