An example from the online help:
hFile = OPEN "/etc/hosts" FOR INPUT
WHILE NOT Eof(hFile)
LINE INPUT #hFile, sOneLine
PRINT sOneLine
WEND
CLOSE #hFile
You open the file, then input one line at a time. This is the classic way.
Don't forget to close the file (see later).
Another method is to load the entire file into a string, with:
sString = file.load("/etc/hosts")
then you must split this long string into a string[] using something like:
sLines = Split(sString, "\n")
At this point you have a string[] array you can traverse with "for each":
for each sLine in sLines
...
...
next
Every single line, obtained by either the two methods, must be again
splitted in tokes and loaded in the TreeView.
About execute command then exit, I had no problems in doing this:
shell "cd /usr/local/bin; xterm &"
This launches the terminal emulator "xterm" in background. If you exit
the application, the xterm stays there.
It is true that open files, environment, signals and other thing may be
inherited by the child process, but I think this can be solved by the
ampersand in the end of the SHELL command.
If you need more help, ask again.
