Source Code for Simple Script

Below is listed the plain text source code from the Creating a Simple Script topic. Both the class version and the non-class version are provided. You can paste these into the Mira Script Editor and execute the code.

1. Copy the text below to the Windows clipboard: Below the top upper (or lower) horizontal line, swipe the entire text with your mouse, then right-click the mouse on the highlighted text. In the pop-up menu, select Copy.

2. In Mira, execute File > New and double click on "Script Document". This opens an empty Script Editor window.

3. Right click the mouse and select Paste in the pop-up menu. The script text will appear in the window and will acquire the syntax formatting in effect.

4. To run the script, click on the Script Editor.

-- Sample Script (Class Version)

T = CTextView:new("My Text Window") -- create an instance of class CTextView

n = math.sqrt( GetNumber(100) ) -- get a number from the user, default to 100

f = n + math.log( n/55.4 ) -- do some math

s = "My String" .. " goes here." -- concatenate two strings

T:Printf("Val=%.2f\r\nStr= '%s'\r\n", f,s) -- format f and s to the Text Editor.

-- (do more things here)

T:delete() -- do when completely finished using T

-- Sample Script (Non-class version)

n = math.sqrt( GetNumber(100) ) -- get a number from the user, default to 100

f = n + math.log( n/55.4 ) -- do some math

s = "My String" .. " goes here." -- concatenate two strings

Printf("Val=%.2f\r\nStr= '%s'\r\n", f,s) -- format f and s to the Text Editor.
