Possible for a new way to script?

[GizmoTheGreen]

Have anyone here used "GlovePIE" before?
It's a program where you can script input/output actions for many devices, like making you joystick control your mouse, or making you mouse clicks into turbofire/macros.

I think a similar style would be good for LCDsmartie.

Code: Select all

var.totaltorrents = $dll(utorrent,x,x,x) //returns number of torrents and stores it in a variable

if torrent.current = var.totaltorrents + 1
var.position = 1 //will "replay" the list once it reaches the end
endif

smartie.row1 = $dll(utorrent,2,var.position,nameoftorrent) //shows the torrent name
smartie.row2 = $dll(utorrent,2,var.position,downloadspeed) // shows the current speed for the torrent

wait 5s // wait 5 seconds (update interval)

var.position++ //show next torrent

smartie. will allow you to change smarties settings/properties, like updatespeeds and the text on the lcd.

var."name" is variables, alse its scripting in something that resembles c/c++ syntax

for GlovePIEs syntax read its preliminary documentation, quick to find on google.

Is this a good idea?

Bumping this, I really think lcd smartie needs a new scripting style, a glovepie'ish~ style would be good, and more kind towards the newb user.

consider youd normally have to combine shitloads of plugins(dll calls) to do even simple stuff, like math.

what if its built in, like a real programming lang, like some kind of BASIC approach.
