Simple Startup Script

Have you ever needed an effective startup, but don't know how to program one? Probably not, but look at this post anyway.
The simple program I just made is a small startup, effective for making a personal computer for your home.

FETURES:

• No CTRL+T
• Program can easily turn on wireless and wired modems
• Not a long program, so you don't spend hours programming (doesn't matter if http is enabled)

CODE:

os.pullEvent = os.pullEventRaw
term.setCursorPos(8,1)
print ("ComputerCraft 1.5.2")
term.setCursorPos(1,2)
term.setTextColor(colors.blue)
print ("Please enter your password to enter this computer.")
pass = ("password") -- Change password to whatever you want it to be,
write ("Password = ")
term.setTextColor(colors.cyan)
input = read("*")
if not (input == pass) then
term.setTextColor(colors.red)
print ("Incorrect password. Shutting down...")
sleep(1)
os.shutdown()
end
if (input == pass) then
term.setTextColor(colors.green)
print ("Welcome,")
sleep(1)
term.setTextColor(colors.cyan)
print ("Please input side of wireless/wired modem, or 'none' if you have no modem attached.")
none = ("none")
input = read()
if not (input == none) then
rednet.open( input )
print ("Modem turned on.")
term.setTextColor(colors.white)
sleep(0.5)
end
if (input == none) then
print ("No modems turned on.")
term.setTextColor(colors.white)
sleep(0.5)
end
end

Thank you for not calling this an OS

Found an error in code, fixed it. :)/>

Haha, your first line is epic :D/>

Thanks for the compliment :3

Err… correct me if I'm wrong but

os.pullEvent = os.pullEventRaw
term.setCursorPos(8,1)
print ("ComputerCraft 1.5.2")
term.setCursorPos(1,2)
term.setTextColor(colors.blue)
print ("Please enter your password to enter this computer.")
pass = ("password") -- Change password to whatever you want it to be,

write ("Password = ")
term.setTextColor(colors.cyan)
input = read("*")
if not (input == pass) then  -- You shouldn't have the () around the variables.
  term.setTextColor(colors.red)
  print ("Incorrect password. Shutting down...")
  sleep(1)
  os.shutdown()
end
if (input == pass) then  -- You really do not need the ()
  term.setTextColor(colors.green)
  print ("Welcome,")
  sleep(1)
  term.setTextColor(colors.cyan)
  print ("Please input side of wireless/wired modem, or 'none' if you have no modem attached.")
  none = ("none")
  input = read()
  if not (input == none) then  -- again you don't need the ()
	rednet.open( input )
	print ("Modem turned on.")
	term.setTextColor(colors.white)
	sleep(0.5)
  end
  if (input == none) then  -- Same here
	print ("No modems turned on.")
	term.setTextColor(colors.white)
	sleep(0.5)
  end
end

Also I spaced your program, it makes it easier to read. Also you don't need to do

if not var == var then

all you need if the main if

if input == password then
  -- code
  else -- This removes the need for the extra if
  -- code that would be in the "if not"

EDIT: I hate how when you copy something in it copies the code box, not just the code.

Thank you for spacing my code. Also, I have some feedback for your feedback…
—————————————————————————————————–

if (input == pass) then
print ("Code goes here")
else
print ("More code goes here")

I knew that, and I usually do that, but when I programmed and tested this, there was originally an override password, but it didn't work right and I removed it. After that, I didn't feel like re-scripting anything else, so I just left it how it was.
—————————————————————————————————–

if not (input == pass) then – You shouldn't have the () around the variables.

If I have the (), it changes nothing and it helps me be more organized.

Actually the syntax reads better without the ().

Whatever, I'll try to stop programming with the ()s now.

I'm just trying to be helpful, but also try spacing for often as well, it will make your code easier to read, and you can organize better that way too.

I know you were trying to be helpful, (and believe me, you were,) but I just wanted to tell you why I did what you didn't. Also, the

wasn't anything against you, I just didn't really feel like writing.

Forgot to say, the other fixes were helpful. Also, forgot to change program until now.

Right click -> paste as plain text

Thanks, that'll be helpful later.
