It seems we need a new section "Ask for a program" :D/>/>

Make a Tetris game to be added to rom…
If it is too easy for you, make rednet router.
If that is easy too, make AI program capable to replicate itself if started in a Crafty mining turtle. (Near a tree, so it has fuel to move)

I am looking for a program i saw in a video.

He told the turtle "getOil" and the same turtle later to "getLava"

The turtle went into the air, and starting heading to an oil spot (or lava spot) and then came back and filled his tanks….

How the hell? lol

i think you should make a sorta lua program that sends people things to run and stuff. so then when you have completed it you should take it… and shove IT UP YOUR BUTT! :D/>/> But seriously… there are about 40 other, "hmmmm what program should i make next" posts out there.

Make a self installing login program wich uses servers.
So when you launch the installation you'll get

    Installation
    > Server
      Client

But you know I mean like

if selection == "server" then
  shell.run("pastebin","get","serverside_version_id","startup")
  -- ^ Lame way of doing it
elseif selection == "client" then
  shell.run("pastebin","get","clientside_version_id","startup")
end

Use pastebin as database :P/>

I suggest making a utility that can create computer backups - SaveState is probably intermediate skill level and can also come in pretty handy. Maybe make it post the files to pastebin or a webserver as well so the backups can't be destroyed.

Well if you want to upload the same way the pastebin programs do I can tell you that pastebin's limit will stop you

CC already spammed pastebin, why don't spam it even more then?

The best way I think is to edit a pastebin file via CC, check out pastbin's API for the web!

Really good idea !! Thanks ! I think I will look into the pastebin API for that. ^^ Already done. :)/>
