I just found a very nice way to open a text input dialog on Windows. There is a dll called LuaWin that works well. It has been referenced on the list before, http://www.lyra.org/pipermail/scite-interest/2006-February/007205.html And shows up here, http://lua-users.org/wiki/SciteInplaceCalculator
The dll evidently needs a small Lua binary, Lua+Lib.dll in order to run. Lua+Lib.dll can be downloaded from the first link on http://phi.lho.free.fr/softwares/PhiLhoSoft/Lua/Lua.en.html. It works: local Init = loadlib(props['SciteDefaultHome']..'/lua/library/LuaWin.dll', 'Init') Init() local flg, msg = win.InputBox('What is your name?') print(msg) Sweet. -Ben _______________________________________________ Scite-interest mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.lyra.org/mailman/listinfo/scite-interest
