[Lua] Own "wrap"

Hi,

I want to have own "wrapped" functions, like I do with peripheral.wrap(). Can you please give me any link to documentation or anything? I really don't know what to search, so I had to write this.

Thanks a lot,

Trip.

Wrap isnt magic, it just returns a table containing functions. I'm assuming you want to make something you can redirect term to, in which case you just make a table, write your versions of getCursorPos, setCursorPos, write, etc. and set them into a table, like this…

--can define funcs outside...
function myWrite(text)
  --code here
end

--or in the table itself
local myTermWrap={
  setCursorPos=function(text) <code> end,
  write=myWrite,
  etc.
}

I just showed two to demonstrate, you have to do 7 for a proper redirect - set/getCursorPos, getSize, clear, clearLine, write, and setCursorBlink.

Nice, this is what I wanted. Thanks! :)/>/>

Oh? Is scroll not required?

oops, no, scroll is definitely required, I just forgot to list it!
