Split into new topic.

Why not make it yourself? It's a pretty simple matter of using the monitor functions, which are all pretty well-documented on the wiki.

Try a little experimentation with the monitor api, and see where that takes you. Also, remember to wrap the monitor using peripheral.wrap("<side the monitor is on>")

name your program something other than startup… eg program1

then edit startup and type :-

shell.run("monitor top program1")

and save the file… this will run the program on the monitor… (remember that this looks for the monitor on the top face of the computer. – Change top to the side of your monitor.
