Ive been fooling around with VB lately, so I decided to write a cog editor... Basically, its a Notepad clone. But it has a few features Notepad doesnt . . . mainly, it saves ONLY to *.cog files. It also has a nifty verb "verification" feature to check if a verb is spelled right, and to get its syntax.


Download the beta here.

Please, download and try it. Its only 110k (30k zipped). [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]

Not bad, if you could incorporate a checker such as SM's parser in it then it would be awesome.

Hey cool. You beat me to it GBK. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/biggrin.gif]

I had plans to make a Cog writing program, but never got around to it. This is a nice start. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]

Make it work just like Visual Basic (sub/function drop down menu for messages, and autocomplete and whatnot) and I'll love you forever. (right now it's just a temporary thing [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif] )

Ok. Im gonna ask this just once . . WTF does that comic have to do with my program? [http://forums.massassi.net/html/confused.gif]


Hellcat; Id love to go autocomplete, but Ill have to figure it out first. Im not much of a programmer. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/frown.gif] Id first like to get drag&drop working. Anyone know how?

I think the comic was about who SM is.

SM = SaberMaster who is a mod of this forum, even though he doesnt actually visit massassi anymore. He once wrote a cog parser which is quite helpful.

Its been a while since I've done vb, I dont think I would be of much use to you.

Bolth would be nice... So I could associate cogs with the program, and it would open htem correctly.

2003-01-01, 2:16 PM #16
I only know when the program is run (via associating program with file type)

Code: 
Private Sub Form_Load()

  YourEditBoxThingie.Text = Command$

End Sub


I thought I knew the drag-drop method while the prgoram is running, but that was something totally different. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/frown.gif]

If only SM could see this. *remembers* I miss him, GBK does too. Hellcat and other frequent visitor, verterin coggers will be the only ones who miss him.

Ok, Ive managed to get it to load files on startup. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]

The next "release" will have alot more features. Existing/planned features:

  • The 'Verify' feature.
  • A verb picker. You can pick verbs out of a list to add. Mostly done.
  • A hexadecimal calculator. Its alrady done, and it works. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]
  • Drag & drop.
  • Autocomplete, as an extension of the "Verify" function.



Please, dont ask for Parsec-like functionality. I dont know how to do that. But, I am open to any other suggestion...

How does this grab you?

[http://www.massassi.org/gbk/add_symbol.png]

You can add any message from this window, which can be access from the menu (Tools>Add Symbol..), or by hotkey (Ctrl+W). You can also build a symbol, with any variable, and add it (hence the window name). THe "auto increment" stuff is for automatically upping the array or ID variables, so you can very quickly build large symbol arrays. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/biggrin.gif]

Wow, lookin good. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif] I don't see a need for hex-dec dec-hex for cogs.

You know whats funny? I made a little proggie in VB to make arrays for me with all the spiffy stuff you just made. Makes life easier ya know. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]
