For DBPRO, have not tried with DBC!

A working enter key return and backspace are here, including being able to type over other text. You can move your 'cursor' to a different spot quickly by clicking the mouse there with a left click. To save the text, right click and enter a file name, must have .txt at the end of it. Keep in mind that saving will exit out and end your notepad session.

I definately could have squeezed this into less than 20 lines if I wanted, but dbpro is a little wobbly when it comes to certain commands like clr, and end, when they are squished together on a line with other commands. It didn't seem worth the trouble to go any further.

Can't wait to hear from you!!


[EDIT!!!!] *Sigh*, use the one in the codebox below, not the one in source. It has a minor change that makes it actually exit when you save, like it should. (otherwise the text goes away on your pad but the data isn't erased, making it unusable until a restart)

We need a save/load function
And instead of making it full screen then wy not make it windowed? It would look cooler.
But i like how you type the text in

Editted this a little bit, added a load function ontop of the existing save function. Neither saving nor loading exits you out now! You can access the load function via the control key. I have also set it to open in windows mode. Thanks for tryin it The Nerd!

[EDIT] That's why you can move the cursor with the mouse...

Hi.

i see that the load and save function work now.

but i have found a big bug.
When you load a saved file the "Cursor" start at the start of the text and when you hit spacebar to get the cursor out of the text the text is being deleted.

also another bug is that "j" looks like "i".

Another bug:
when i hit backspace, it doesn´t delete anything, it´s like hitting the space key...
And it´s quite a bad font type. That´s a shame. work a little on it.

Try increasing the sync rate a bit.
