Enhanced API
« on: June 15, 2011, 05:20:39 pm »
Hey guys, I just recently whipped up an enhanced lua API to make lots of things easier to do.

It's still very beta but I'm liking how it's turning out so far. If anyone wants to have a go at editing it, be my guest. ;)

Buttons, text boxes, windows, etc are all abstacted and easily controllable with this.

Let me know what you think.

Heya and welcome on the forums. :)

I do not program at all, but is this some sort of set of pre-made routines to make programming easier?

Hey TZScribblez!
I just looked a bit at your code, and it looks pretty good. This will be useful for many Lua Programmers :)

That's essentially what it is, a bunch of convenience functions used to make the whole process easier. Nobody wants to have to program the same small things over and over to do something different with them - if someone wants to make 3 or 4 programs that utilize basic window/button functionality then why should they have to code it more than once? ;)

Thanks for the feedback :)
