If someone could make me my "dream program" that would be great.
INFO:
I need a to-do list program now i can just make my own where it displays stuff but i want multi pages.The monitor size i want is a 2 x 4 monitors. Here is an example(see pic)
What i was just a page button where i can right click it and it would go to the next page then at the end it would go back to the beginning. so there would be 24 on a page and maybe if possible unlimited pages ? if anyone could help me thanks and if u need anymore info just tell me. Thanks again!

Its not a suggestion, it is a program request… once again the lack of a better description for this subforum has hit, I still think it should be "Post your suggestions for the ComputerCraft mod here."
I've reported this to be moved to General, when a moderator gets around to doing it.

The read first and rules post could be a bit more descriptive. But the
Suggestions Not to Make (read this first) post is very clear. I think that it also strikes the right balance of openness and intimidation.

I could make a try on it tomorrow.
It's very late here in Sweden, and I'm about to go to bed.

Things are going well, most of the things are working now.
I just got to do a few more things, and make a way to import 'todo's' and then it should be about done.

That's a bit to late to say now… I think…
Well, I think I could pull it off…
BTW. It's almost done, just need to do a few more things…
Edit: Eeeeh, does anyone know if a number is even? (2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 etc)
Otherwise it wont be possible.

if num % 2 == 0 then
print("Number is even")
end
Also i suggest that using textutils.pagedTabulated could help you automatically and easily print on the monitor. just like the `ls` program does.

Ain't that a little bit overreactive?
Anyhow, I just need to make a simple thing to import and delete tasks, and then it's done and you can have it :)/>

This editor realy seems the hardest part of the program, mostly, because I'm fixing bugs inbetween.
I say, give me another 15 minutes, and it will be done.

You guys remember I said the editor was the hardest thing?
I was soooo right..
I have NO idea how I can delete a task…
If anyone feels like helping, this is what should happen:
tasks = {"Lol", "Lol2", "Lol3", "Lol4", "Lol5"}
--I want to delete task 2, or 'Lol2'
--Tasks[2] = Tasks[3]
--Tasks[3] = Tasks[4]
--Etc.

this one would delete by the task number
function deleteIndexedTask( _idx )
for i = _idx, #tasks - 1 do
tasks[ i ] = tasks[ i + 1]
end
tasks[ #tasks ] = nil
end
this one would remove all instances of a task that match the task text (requires above function as well)
function deleteByTask( _str )
local _idx
for i = 1, #tasks do
while tasks[i] == _str do
deleteIndexedTask( _idx )
end
end
end
NOTE: Both will move all the tasks up a number in the list, that way you still keep the sequential indexes and don't have like
1.
2.
3.
5.

table.remove( table, index ) works just as well :P/>, and in your "delete task by text" code, that while loop should be an if statement

Ok granted table.remove works just as well, but the while loop is deliberate

Still failing to see why you would need the while loop :o/> , the for loop is already looping through all the indexes, the while loop is acting as an if statement as tasks
and _str will never change.

Lets assume we have this table
"buy something"
"kill something"
"make something"
"make something"
"do that"
and then we do
deleteByTask( "make something" )
the resulting table would be
"buy something"
"kill something"
"make something"
"do that"
this is because the second "make something" falls into the slot of the one we were just in, and it wouldn't recheck the index and thus it would remain.

Hmm, I'll give you that :P/>, I would usually push all the indexes that need deleting into a table, then use the table of indexes to remove from the first. I blame Java and concurrent modification exceptions :)/>

As long as you started from the last index and worked forwards that would also work.

This was such an awesome program. I'll be using this in every one of my bases from now on. No more sign todo lists for my houses now.
