Did you mean something else different? Dan Moyer

Perusing a programme called "Runner.exw" which I found in EuWinGui\ewg-demos .. Andrea Cini. While I added afew programmes to the text --programme-- and it worked, I really did not know what the new commands list1 , group1, handle, meant. So I am looking for a euphoria type reference manual from which I can see and learn the commands. Like winmain , and all the numbers that follow certain commands. thanks again Dan, sincerely , les.r.

Hello les, list1 and group1 are not commands. They are atoms declared by the writer of this program. Handler is not a command and not used in you're example/demo program. The actual command is setHandler and can be found in Index.htm that comes with win32lib along with all the WINDOWS commands. As far as what I call DOS commands like printf, puts, get etc... Thay can be found in http://www.rapideuphoria.com/cgi-bin/asearch.exu?dos=on&win=on&lnx=on&gen=on&keywords=jockey Don Cole

Where please ?? > > sincerely, > les.r This is probably missing, but would be a huge task to perform. This community is mostly made of hobbyists none of whom can invest the required time in writing that. I don't know if the articles at http://euwiki.ayo.biz/Category:Win32lib/ could qualify as a Windows programming manual in Euphoria. Probably nor. However, that's the closest existing source I know (I wrote it, and am among the hobbyists). You may also try C.K. Lester website at www.cklester.com/euphoria/ . Some of the links will probably be of some use to you. HTH CChris

There is a nice article at: http://euwiki.ayo.biz/Event_driven_programming which might be of help to you to get started, though I think it relates specifically to the Win32Lib library. Here's some info that might also help: As the Euphoria docs indicate, it is *possible* to program windows applications directly from Euphoria, but not very easy for most people. Therefore, various people have written "libraries" of functions which can be included in a Euphoria program, which allow a programmer to write windows programs *much* easier. Some of those libraries also either include or also have associated with them an "IDE" (integrated development environment", which' allows a programmer to "drag n' drop" various elements of a windows program onto a "work window", with the actual code to implement those elements being written to a file for the programmer, by the IDE. Using an IDE is probably a good way to begin. In general, a windows program differs from a "dos" program in that it involves: 1. a main LOOP (winMain) that "listens" for actions by program USER, etc.; 2. EVENTS that are predefined by the library, & selected by the programmer to be looked for by their program as required; 3. CONTROLS which are the (generally) VISUAL & FUNCTIONAL elements of the program, such as BUTTONS, LISTS, EDIT FIELDS, etc. 4. EVENT HANDLERS, which are the code you would write that would RESPOND to the events you selected to be watched for in your program, such as buttons being CLICKED, or mouse MOVING OVER some control, etc. This article, mentioned above, goes into more detail: http://euwiki.ayo.biz/Event_driven_programming Dan Moyer
