eui vs euiw on windows
- use the eui interpreter when you want to see the console
- use the euiw interpreter when you want the console to be invisible (it is intended for graphical programs that do not use the console)
? video_config()
- if you are in "text" mode, then there are no individual pixels (hence pixel count is zero 0)
position()
- will place the cursor where you want it
include std/console.e integer rows = 50 -- the maximum rows under windows ? text_rows( rows)
Your choices are 25, 28, 43 and 50 lines for most systems.
check out the WEE editor https://github.com/peberlein/WEE
in the text based "edx.ex" editor (renamed from ed.ex)
- esc l for ( escape lines)
gives you a choice of line numbers under windows
gentle suggestion, try Linux Mint
- you can have a text screen the full size of your monitor
- you can set a small font to get even more stuff on the screen
- edx can work full screen
