help with luafx
« on: March 20, 2012, 09:53:34 pm »
So i recently downloaded Luafx to my fx-9860g because it looked interesting. i found the utmost basic code i could
clear nil
graydraw.print("Hello World!")
misc.wait(200)

i saved it as a .lua file and put it in storage memory. when i open up lua and choose the file it says
" executing test!!!!...... [string "hello.lua''] :7: unexpected symbol"
i have no idea what it means or what to do about it. can i get some help? thanks

Is that your entire code? It says the error is on line 7. And if your program is really called test!!!!, try renaming it to something else -- it's never a great idea to put weird symbols in program names.

And welcome to Omnimaga, nbuesgens!

YOu should pre-compile the .lua file before, making it a .lc file, usable by the interpreter.
SOrry, but the pre-compiler on the addin does not work yet.

Actually, if you use the fx-Manager plus, you can use the precompiler ;) Otherwise, yeah, it doesn't work.
