  Small Basic CMD simulator
Posted by: sm4llprogrammer2008 - 04-19-2025, 05:21 PM - Forum: Standard Small Basic - No Replies

Finally,

After publishing my Bash simulator, I've tried to expand it's very basic code.

ID: ZVVD6.000
Link: https://smallbasic.com/program/?ZVVD6.000

Code:
TextWindow.Hide()
TextWindow.Title = "Windows Command Prompt"
year = Clock.Year
path = "C:\Windows\System32"
helpInfoTxt[1] = "== HELP =="
helpInfoTxt[2] = "dir <path> - Lists files from a path."
helpInfoTxt[3] = "echo <text> - Writes line to the prompt."
helpInfoTxt[4] = "cd <path> - Enters a path."
helpInfoTxt[5] = "help - Shows this text."
TextWindow.Show()
TextWindow.ForegroundColor = "White"
TextWindow.WriteLine("Copyright "+year+" sm4llprogrammer2008")
While ("True")
  TextWindow.ForegroundColor = "White"
  TextWindow.Write(path+">> ")
  TextWindow.ForegroundColor = "Gray"
  prompt = TextWindow.Read()
  EventHandler()
EndWhile

Sub EventHandler 'We'll return events based on input (variable: prompt)
  getting = LDText.Split(prompt, " ") 'Split text
    If getting[1] = "dir" Then 'Event handler for dir
      getpath = getting[2]
      If Text.GetIndexOf(getpath, "C:\") = 1 Then
        files = File.GetFiles(getpath) 'Get files
        For i = 1 To Array.GetItemCount(files) 'List all files from the directory input by the user
          TextWindow.WriteLine(files[i])
        EndFor
      Else 'If no path is typed or none
          TextWindow.WriteLine("Invalid path. Use a valid directory starting with C:\")
     EndIf
    ElseIf getting[1] = "cd" Then 'Event handler for cd
      getpath = getting[2]
      If Text.GetIndexOf(getpath, "C:\") = 1 Then
        path = getpath
      Else
        TextWindow.WriteLine("Invalid path. Use a valid directory starting with C:\")
      EndIf
    ElseIf getting[1] = "echo" Then
      returning = Text.GetSubText(prompt, Text.GetIndexOf(prompt, "echo") + 5, Text.GetLength(prompt) - Text.GetIndexOf(prompt, "echo") - 4)
      TextWindow.WriteLine(returning)
    ElseIf getting[1] = "help" Then
      For i = 1 To Array.GetItemCount(helpInfoTxt)
        TextWindow.WriteLine(helpInfoTxt[i])
      EndFor
    Else
      TextWindow.WriteLine("Unknown command. Type 'help' for info.")
    EndIf
EndSub

Feel free to expand!

Edit: requires LitDev Beta library!

  Small Basic bash simulator
Posted by: sm4llprogrammer2008 - 04-19-2025, 04:21 PM - Forum: Standard Small Basic - No Replies

I've made a bash simulator.
Doesn't have cmdlets, but you can try expanding it!

Link: https://smallbasic.com/program/?XSLJ618.000
ID (to use on SB 1.2 when importing from web): XSLJ618.000

Code:
TextWindow.Hide()
TextWindow.Title = "Small Bash"
While ("True")
  TextWindow.ForegroundColor = "Green"
  TextWindow.Write("\users\")
  TextWindow.ForegroundColor = "Blue"
  TextWindow.Write("~$ ")
  TextWindow.ForegroundColor = "DarkGray"
  prompt = TextWindow.Read()
EndWhile
TextWindow.Show()

It isn't quite compatible with Small Basic Online though.

  Writing extensions - ?
Posted by: Yumda - 04-19-2025, 08:00 AM - Forum: Extensions - Replies (6)

Hi there:

Is there an updated guide for writing SB extension?  My son knows abit of C#, and when we follow the instruction guide on how to write extension for SB using visual c# 2010 the message keeps on popping up that the .net fram work we are targeting is 3.5 but the smallbasic .DLL reference is for .NET 4.5 .  Is there any new tutorial available or what people is using to write the extension? 

Regards

  LDProcess und Datenbankprogramm Adressen
Posted by: martmen - 04-18-2025, 11:19 PM - Forum: Extensions - Replies (1)

Hallo Leute,

habt ihr die LitDev Erweiterung in SB implementiert könnt ihr folgendes machen:
Das Programm LHSZ447.000 (als Menu.sb speichern) und CDGT638.000 (als Adressen.sb speichern) in einem Unterordner z.B. .. /Database Programm und Daten.
Ändert in den Programmen die Path-Angaben. Startet die Programme einmal. Dann könnt Ihr das Programm Menu.exe starten.
Wählt im Menü den Eintrag Adresse aus und es wird Adressen gestartet. Zum Menu kommt Ihr wenn Ihr im Programm Adressen den Button End anklickt.
So ist es möglich, eine Kette von Programmen hin und her aufzurufen.
Das Programm Adressen arbeitet mit einer Tabelle der Datenbank. Um eine andere Tabelle in einem neuen Programm zu bearbeiten, sind nur wenige Zeilen anzupassen.

Viel Spass beim ausprobieren
Martini

  Is Extension Manager gone?
Posted by: sm4llprogrammer2008 - 04-18-2025, 08:52 PM - Forum: Extensions - Replies (2)

Hello, everyone.
I'm new to the forums, and I've been looking for archived versions of LitDev's Small Basic Extension Manager, tried to find TechNet downloads, but unfortunately found none.
Are there GitHub repos of Extension Manager or is it fully obsolete?

If someone has an answer, I'd be happy to know!

Best regards,

sm4llprogrammer2008

  LDFinances Programm
Posted by: martmen - 04-18-2025, 11:54 AM - Forum: Extensions - No Replies

Hallo zusammen,

gibt es jemanden, der ein lauffähiges Programm mit LDFinances verwendet? Ich habe zwar einen Schlüssel, aber das alte Beispiel läuft bei mir nicht. Kann jemand ein lauffähiges Programm veröffentlichen und den Key hier veröffentlichen?

Besten Dank
Martin

  Antivirus is blocking files.
Posted by: AbsoluteBeginner - 04-17-2025, 08:38 PM - Forum: Standard Small Basic - Replies (11)

Today my antivirus started to complain and often block exe files created by the Small Basic compiler.  Sad

Deleting everything and clean reinstalling Small Basic did not help.
Is anyone else having this problem?

( I use licensed Windows 11 Pro )

  Need some help with multiple window in program
Posted by: Yumda - 04-17-2025, 05:04 PM - Forum: Extensions - Replies (7)

Hi there:

I tried to write a program for work to act as a data base recording and search system.  In the section where a patient information is displayed, when the "HOME" button is clicked , it will disable the "NEW SEARCH", or "BACK TO YEAR" button.  Also, is there anyway to close a window created by ldwindow ?  I want the window where the home button is displayed gets closed when the button is clicked.

I have published the program, the code for the program is FDQZ538.000

Any help or advice is greatly appreicated.

Regards

YUMDA
