This sentence is supposed to give a brief overview, but I'm too lazy to write one. :)/>
RedSet is a program where computers can send messages to other computers, but has custom username support and is easy to set up! Just add the program to your computer, turn on the modem, type in your username, and you're finished!

FEATURES:

Easy setup
Download easily with pastebin!
Connection between computers made easy

CODE:


local oldPull=os.pullEvent
os.pullEvent=os.pullEventRaw
function RedSend()
term.setTextColor(colors.red)
print (“What side is your modem on?”)
input = read()
rednet.open( input )
print (“What is your username?”)
input = read()
user = “[“..input..”] “ --Fixed
term.clear()
term.setTextColor(colors.cyan)
function1 = function()
while true do
term.setCursorPos(1,19)
term.clearLine()
write (user)
input = read()
rednet.broadcast (user, input)
end
end
function2 = function()
while true do
print (rednet.receive()) --Receive spelled wrong.
--sleep(0.5) Removed
end
function waitTerminate()
  os.pullEventRaw("terminate")
  os.pullEvent = oldPull
end
end
parallel.waitForAll (function1, function2, waitTerminate)
end
RedSend()
term.clear()
term.setCurosrPos(1,1)
print("Done with RedSend!")

Sorry. Also, I will try to test the program again, hopefully my pastebin is working again.

Uhhh no. While I agree with the whole "test it yourself", because everyone should test their scripts at least once before releasing, this could have been approached in a more tactful way. Also where have you been the last few months, "PUBLIC ALPHAS", "PUBLIC BETAS" and all that is essentially like asking "Can someone test my code for bugs". At some point someone outside of the development circle should bug test and/or use the program, they can find things developers cannot, we are the developers of the program, we know what its meant to do, so sometimes we cannot always find bugs.

line 30, should be

or else the computer will crash, not error, crash, due to stack overflow.

No offense but there are at least three good IRCs out there, DarkIRC, NovaIRC, and another I can't think of the name. You'rs had so many errors when I downloaded it.

Well, I'm sorta new. And, as you can see, I'm "clueless." Not really, but I'm still new.
