movie scrept effect with data file

[TrAnCeIn4LiFe]

ok i found that movie script effect on the turing source and its really ncie i like it a lot i got the thing to work and read the information from the data file, but i ran intoa little problem it keeps going over the new location line all the time.... so anybody know how i coudl make it switch to another line when its done reading the first line in data file btw this is what i got

code:

procedure info     setscreen ("noecho,nocursor")     colorback (black)     cls     open : i, "info.t", get     assert i > 0     loop         get : i, skip         exit when eof (i)         get : i, sentence : *         color (white)         locate (1, (maxcol - length (sentence)) div 2)         for a : 1 .. length (sentence)             put sentence (a) ..             delay (100)         end for     end loop     Input.Pause     cls end info

Your question is a little confusing, but check your locate statement, cause if there is no variables in it that change you will be writing over the same spot.

soemthing liek that but it wont appear under the title it just goes over the first line rewrite it so how can i change that to write the actually infomation under the title or skip a line... hopefully that explainsa bit

if you say

code:

locate (10,1) put title put othershit

title will go on line 10 and othershit will go on line 11. If you keep calling locate everything will go on the line specified. If you want a little extra space throw a put "" in there.

You will need a counter to keep track of which line you want to output to.
You have:

code:

locate (1, (maxcol - length (sentence)) div 2)

you need:

code:

locate (row, (maxcol - length (sentence)) div 2) row+=1
