figured it out on my own... i wrote 2 programs (1 for reading and sending and the 2nd for recieving and saving).

Hi.

I' m trying to write a controll program for stargates from gregs sgcraft.
I made one with all known adresses and a need to send this program to all Computers i use (dont want to update every computer manual if i add a new adress)

Is it possible to send hole programs?
Or can i use an hdd with multiple Computers (and if thats possible, how could i access that hdd)

I made a program out of search results from google, many (MANY) lua wikis and a youtube tutorial. am i on the right way or is it just stupid?

shell = require("shell")
file = require("filesystem")
term = require("term")

local dir = shell.getWorkingDirectory()
local args, options = shell.parse(...)

-- this part reads the lines of a file and saves it in a table

if #args >= 1 then
 doc = dir .. args[1]
 print(doc)
 reader = io.open(doc, 'r')
 if reader ~= nil then
  z = 1
  x = {}
  for line in reader:lines() do
   x[z] = line
   z = z + 1
  end
  reader:close()
 end
end

-- this part takes the table and puts the stings back into a file

y = io.open(dir .. args[2], "w")
if y ~= nil then
 for i in pairs(x) do
  y:write(x[i], "\n")
 end
 y:close()
 print("done")
else print("error")
end 

right now it just takes the lines from one program to another on the same computer. i will use a modem to send it to another.

or is there another way to do this?

Thanks

Hi,

i looked everywhere (at least i think i did), but i couldn't find it. So:

How do i use "goto" in opencomputers? Please give an example for it, because that would make things easier for me. (i learned lua on my own and i'm still learning)

thanks

Hi.

I started to use this mod today, so i'm really new.

My main problem is, that after some time, the computer is out of memory. Is it possible to get more free memory without rebooting?

Another problem is, that i always need a boot floppy. i dont get how to boot from an hdd.

thanks for your help,

chris
