MonoWrite
Welcome to monowrite!

This is a monitor text displayer program. I was using it for a quiz show I'm about to do with a friend, but I thought: Too good to keep it for myself. So, I shared it. Go to this link to recieve a readme file on how to get MonoWrite.

Uhmm.. So this is basically a program that writes what you write in the program?
Or is it a function in the program?
Is it something like this?

mon = peripheral.wrap(side)

function drawAt(x,y,text)
--Terminal
 term.setCursorPos(x,y)
  write(x,y,text)

--Monitor
 mon.setCursorPos(x,y)
 mon.print(text)
end

Or have I just gotten completly lost?
And keep in mind that most people prefeer pastebin links since it's quick and easy to download from 'em.

It's a program where what you write on the computer is shown on the monitor.
You also shouldn't of put that last part because I put the pastebin code in the txt file.

But it would've made sense to just post the pastebin link itself.

You used my time at adfly to get a pastebin code to get 8 lines long file.

What happens when you have written a nil side/message or unsuported side like "top right"

Don't use adfly to link to your programs.

Don't be a dick, jesusthekiller. I removed your post. Next time, it's an official warning.

Actually, it will attempt to call nil. Since "top right" is not a valid side.

Keep in mind that back, front, left, right, top, or bottom are valid sides. Wait, I was talking to the wrong person. Oops! My bad.

Once again, my bad. Never knew that.
Oh, and I'd like to thank you for getting rid of the insult! I thought nobody else would download the program after that post.

Code:


write("Monitor position: ")
pos = read()
write("Type message: ")
input = read()
local monitor = peripheral.wrap(pos)
monitor.clear()
monitor.setCursorPos(1,1)
monitor.write(input)

Do know that noone is interested to download something to get a link to download it..
They want it to be quick and easy for them, So I suggest that you put the pastebin link in your post
or you will probably be ignored, But there are a few atleast that will download it, But not many..
