| Post subject: | TWXProxy Script commenting questions |
I made a post earlier that wasn't very descriptive in the title or the body, and didn't specify the helper, my appologies. Thought I would just do a new post trying to have a more descriptive title in case a new scripter is doing a search later. As I said in the previous message, when doing a comment in a TWXProxy script, the # at the beginning of each line is well known and the most used commenting technique out there. I saw in a script written by someone, I think it was Sing, // used on a line of code to make a comment after the code itself - if I was seeing that right. I would appreciate if someone could confirm that this is correct, or let me know I am mistaken. I did a search of the forum for multi-line commenting, I thought I had seen a comment spanning multiple lines in a script or script example in the forum somewhere, but I couldn't find it doing a search. Is it possible to do a multiple line comment in a TWXProxy script with a set of symbols marking the start and end of the comment? If so, was it /* to begin and */ to end? Or is something else used to start and end a multiple line comment? I would appreciate it if someone could confirm this or tell me I am mistaken. |

So let's test it... Code: # Test Script # Testing various Rem(s) # in twx script :howdy echo "** This is test of remarks w/ twx.**" :test1 # ok, pretty tame so far echo "** Ok, now for a //...**" // This is meant to test the // remark theory :post // This is the second test of the // # ok, now for the multi line trial :multiline /* just testing a multi line remark to see if it works at all or if it will end in some sort of failure...*/ # ok fin :Dats_All echo "That'll about do it for this test" This gets us this: Loading and compiling script: C:\TWXProx2.04\scripts\_Working\__RemTesting.ts So I change line 8 from this: Code: echo "** Ok, now for a //...**" // This is meant to test the // remark To this: Code: echo "** Ok, now for a //...**" # // This is meant to test the // remark Pooh, same result, duplicate error. So now I change line 8 to: Code: #echo "** Ok, now for a //...**" // This is meant to test the // remark Result? Script compilation error: Operation syntax error, line 9 (__REMTESTING.TS) Doh! Doesn't care for that // rem at all... Ok, so I # out line 9.. Error in line 12. Ok, that's the /* multiline comment. */ So for my testing, on my version of twx..the only rem I can find is the #. |

Doh! Post Edit : I did an extremely simple script to do a sector display from the command prompt. It appears the inline remark function with // does work, although as I said it is a very simple script so who knows with something longer. Maybe I should test on a bigger script? Here is the test script code : Code: # Comments test :comment1 send "*" // This should do a display of the sector halt |

I added inline comments with the beta of v2.05. I believe all of the beta versions floating around include this, as it was added early. Begin inline coments with // There is no multiline comment available at this time. Regards, +EP+ |
