Hi Just been playing prboom which is a clone of the doom game from about 1993, if you remember doom it had loads of command line options, in addition the dos version had a nice gui type interface in dos that you clicked on certain options and it would pass these to the game for example doom -warp13 -respawn would start doom, warp to e1m3 and respawn monsters, so the gui would allow you to set these options, hit OK and then have it pass the specified arguments (??) to the game. I want to do something similar, but am not sure on the best software to do this, I can use a nice xorg type gui program OR something like ncurses which will work on the command line and from a window, the latter would be better. any suggestions welcome, and YES i have googled but never having done this before would like a suggestion as to what i can use. It needs to be fairly simple, Paul
Um... just a wild guess but maybe you could try doing a Perl or Python script? Could be a fun way of learning the language.
Other than that Gambas might do the job (it's kind of like an equivalent to Visual Basic but on Linux).
