Hi, Can I get it so say() etc.. is output to the command line rather than stdout.txt ? ____________ :o |

You mean you want to execute something in the terminal? You can accomplish this by using the system() command in C, so you could make a DLL, though Fenix programmers disadvise the use of system() in DLLs, but I forgot why. Code: static int SYSTEM(INSTANCE * my, int * params) { int r = system(string_get(params[0])); string_discard(params[0]); return r; } For documentation, see this page. ____________ BennuWiki Yes, my avatar has grey borders in IE (so get a decent browser) ROOFLEZ ROOFLEZ |

Doesn't fenix have the system() command? I know DIV did. Quoting DIV manual: System(<"external command">)
Description: Executes the operating system's command passed as a perameter. ____________ |

No... hmm what do I mean? Just the display of it. Like if I use printf in C. It prints to the command line. But with Fenix it is printed to "stdout.txt". Also if I use printf in a DLL it is output to the text file not the command line as I would like. I want to see it real time rather than checking the text file after it finishes.

I used a batch. I'll look at it at home. I think Eckolin gave it to me once.

I don't know what you are doing or using, but say() does exactly that. To make my point even stronger, TAKE THIS! Quoting Fenix code: static int fxi_say (INSTANCE * my, int * params) { /* Show debugging info also in stdout */ printf ("%s\n", string_get(params[0])); gr_con_printf("%s\n", string_get(params[0])) ; string_discard(params[0]) ; return 1 ; } I have it in my commandline in realtime, and if not you can always check the console.

stdout in my case seems to be "stdout.txt". It's fine on linux.

DTM, I don't think we understand what you are asking. If you want Fenix to display text in the command line, just use the say(); command. Then if you run your Fenix program from CMD or from a batch file, you will see your beautiful words appearing in the sexy black screen. If, however, you want to execute the output, like the system(); command in DIV, you will need to use C because Fenix does not have that command (yet). By the way, the say(); command also adds a line of text into the stdout.txt file, as I'm sure you are aware. - Greg. ____________ .g105b'' |

Are you using an old version of SDL perhaps? This is a problem with the SDL binaries. There is a nice helpful thread on GameDev.net. I am sure there is other information there about this "problem" also. ____________ I see 57,005 people. |

Quoting DTM: I want to see it real time rather than checking the text file after it finishes. Alt-C opens the Fenix console, where all say() commands output their text. The Fenix console is accessible when compiled with the option -g. ____________ BennuWiki Yes, my avatar has grey borders in IE (so get a decent browser) ROOFLEZ ROOFLEZ |

The fenix console will be usefull for say(). Quoting PEader: Are you using an old version of SDL perhaps? This is a problem with the SDL binaries. There is a nice helpful thread on GameDev.net. I am sure there is other information there about this "problem" also. Yeah that sounds like the problem. Thanks [Edited on October 23, 2006 by DTM] ____________ :o |
