So I'm trying to make a movie theater. I want it to print things on the monitor (which I am having it do) but then when I try to run the secret/alongtimeago thing with shell.run ('secret/alongtimeago") it runs it on the computer instead of the monitor. How do I make it run on the monitor instead?

You need to specify the peripheral it must play on

shell.run("monitor", "left", "secret/alongtimeago") -- where left is the side of the monitor in respect of the computer

Thanks so much! Now my movie theater actually works! Now I just got to make it look good and build 3 more theatres and make some of my own movies. Dang it.
