I know lots of javascript though...but that would really help.
you could create your own scripting language for it.

Looks pretty nice. I'm glad it isn't gonna take a lot of CPU ressources, I was asking since I know some apps runs in real time on computers to monitor stuff. Netham45 Starcraft log relayer (a bot we had in #omnimaga that relayed IRC convo to the third party SC server he ran and another one relaying the SC server lobby channel convo to #omnimaga. Basically something a bit similar to TI-SAX on Cemetech), but he had it check for new lines of text non-stop and his host provider asked him to shut the bot down because it took 100% of the CPU ressources.

Also question, in which versions of Windows will this work? Like will it be only 32 bit compatible, will it work on XP, etc?

Also btw sorry I might not be able to help a lot on the project in terms of suggestions, since I do not know ASM, nor coding-wise, since I don't know much in terms of PC programming :(

It's a sad day when someone doesn't know .NET :P lol
What you can use in .NET is something called reflection, where you can dynamically load external assemblies at runtime and instantiate (create a variable representing) a class in the assembly, without knowing anything about it beforehand.  What I usually do to support add-ins is make a class that you can derive from, and import the assemblies into my program, which makes it super flexible for add-in programmers.  Once I load the external assembly, I can call methods created by the add-in developer easily, essentially making add-ins work like a second program that happens to share gui and certain variables.

Edited to answer previous post
It runs in x86 or x64 bit windows (meaning 32 and 64 bit), on XP, Vista, or 7.  It also runs on most Linux distros, and Intel Macs.

This is a sad day when someone has to say such narrow-minded and provocative remarks...

Unfortunately to everyone, no updates nor awnsers to your questions will be given by the project author for at least 4 hours.

DJ: it's ok, I was ok with it.
But yeah, we do try to discourage remarks like that.

I apologize if I offended anyone, it shall not happen again.  I am a n00b to this forum, and am not entirely aquainted to it.

It's ok, you just need to be careful sometimes. Not that I see the point of trying to offend other people or start fights anyway (yes there are people who do that). Omnimaga was always more strict on that part because other forums aren't and we want to provide at least one friendlier environment for the TI community, especially for projects. This is why we have this 3rd sentence in the intro message on front page. Some people can be used to other forum styles, though, and take a while to get used to ours, or vice-versa :P

That's looking sweet. I really need to get back into programming (on all platforms) again... Bah I'll start tomorrow. Nice work though.

But for now, MORE BATTLEFIELD: BAD COMPANY 2!!! Heh  ;D

lol is a bit understated nowadays, but I literally lol'd.

Also,
I take it Summer Glau posts are frowned upon here?

Replying on forums with essay-like posts signed "Summer Glau"
5 paragraphs minimum, usually.

Ah. I wouldn't think so.
Unless of course the post actually was relevant. And you would usually want to put a tl;dr in there for the people who don't have the attention span to read it all.

Oh, Summer Glau posts are always a bit too relevant.  And what is tl;dr?
