1. Getting started with IDE
I'm investigating use of Euphoria, but just cannot get started with IDE.
Could someone talk me through a simple program such as adding two numbers.
I cannot get the widgets (buttons for example) to link to any code.
Perhaps Charles Newbold could write another chapter to his excellent Intro to
Euphoria Programming covering basic use of the IDE
Any help greatly appreciated!

this is an wxWindows issue not an IDE issue.

Oh! One more thing,
Use IDE to create all the Windows,Buttons,etc.(controls) for you program.
Then write all the exection of the controls by hand. With Edita or some kind of
editor.

Thanks, Don,
Fine, but if I put that code into an IDE button procedure it will only revert to
the DOS window to run.
How does one set up the equivalent of Visual Basic's Input or Output Boxes, and
get the output shown in a window window?

In the IDE, if you double-click on your button widget it should open up the code
editor. You can select the event you wish to trap, for buttons that would
normally be the 'Click' event. Then write your code to add the numbers.
For example, let's assume you have three edittext fields Num1, Num2, and Num3.
And a button named 'AddNumbers'. In the code editor for the button initially it
looks like ...
procedure AddNumbers_onClick (integer self, integer event, sequence
params)--params is ()
end procedure
setHandler( AddNumbers, w32HClick, routine_id("AddNumbers_onClick"))
and you code something like ...
procedure AddNumbers_onClick (integer self, integer event, sequence
params)--params is ()
atom n,m
n = getNumber(Num1)
m = getNumber(Num2)
setText(Num3, n+m)
end procedure
setHandler( AddNumbers, w32HClick, routine_id("AddNumbers_onClick"))
And that's it. Press F5 to run it.

Not really, a widget is a device on a window, wxWidgets is the name of the
program that puts widgets on the window.

A _very_ quick tutorial on adding two numbers
1. Open the IDE
2. Click the input tab from the controls at the bottom
3. Click an input box (hold your mouse over the controls - it will say Edit
text)
4. Click somewhere on Window 1
5. Click the input box on the contriols section again
6. Click under the previously created input box
7. Click the controls tab of the controls
8. Click a button
9. Click somehwere else on Window 1
10. Add another input box
11. By clicking on each of the controls on the window, you can reposition and
resize them ubntil you have what you like
12. Click an input, select caption in the property list, and delete the caption
(not the name). Repeat for the other input boxes.
13. Click the button, change the caption to 'Add'
14. Double click the Add button
15. copy and paste the following code into the new window that has popped up.
object a, b, c
a = 0
b = 0
if length(getText(EditText2)) > 0 then
a = w32TextToNumber(getText(EditText2))
end if
if length(getText(EditText3)) > 0 then
b = w32TextToNumber(getText(EditText3))
end if
c = a + b
setText(EditText5, sprintf("%f", {c}) )

Caveat : make sure EditText2, 3, and 5 correspond to the text boxes you have
created.
Press the little clock to run the app.

Many thanks to Chris Burch and Derek Powell - I've got the hang of it now!
Incidentally is there aa annotated list of IDE command words anywhere? Can't
find one with the IDE download, or in the Archives.

Do you mean win32lib command words, the excellent Mr Parnell's (D Cuny, et al)
windows interface library. Look in the win32lib documentation. Lots to read -
enjoy!
