ok so i read the tutorial that freakman made which was very helpful. (thx freakman if u read this)
anyways it said that all u need is this really to write to a file

[Turing]
var stream : int
open : stream, "filename.txt", put
put : stream, "test"
[/Turing]

anyways i was wondering if there is a way to write to the file without get statement so that u do not have a output window. so basically u run the program and type with no window and it saves that stuff to the file.

is there a way to do that? if so could i get some help plz Very Happy

there shouldn't be any run window opening when you are creating a text file.... perhaps you are doing something wrong?

NOTE: I don't have turing on this laptop (YAY! I finally got one Very Happy) so i may be wrong.

im not talking about just opening and placing code but like

if u use get statement or w.e it is

example

code:

var x:string
get x

that opens a window automatically.

what i would like if possible is to somehow use something else that when the program runs itll keep tracl of what u type (kinda like a key logger) except im make a typing program where it gives u the phrase and then closes the screen then u get to type then opens when u hit enter or w.e then tells you what u got right. its kinda memorization with typing skills.

i dont got the whole code yet cuz im trying to work on the typing with window closed part first. any ideas? plz like is there a way to use input.keydown with the window closed to also call upon every keyoboard peice well numbers, punctuation, letters so that is writes them to a file?

I think the default run window in Turing has to be visible to get input from the keyboard (even with Input.KeyDown). You can try using Window.Hide () but I think you will get an error.
