There's some nice new features there! I don't remember the help system being so good. 15:28:49 There should be a quickstart prominently on the homepage suggesting that people start out by typing: ./retro --with fullimage.rx 15:29:11 It's funny, I wrote an implementation of the Ngaro VM, but I never played much with Retro itself 15:52:27 I guess the proper sequence is: "make fullimage; ./retro" followed by "help 15:58:08 Is there a way to pass input to retro without it exiting automatically? 15:58:24 From the command line, that is. 15:58:46 "echo help|./retro" works, but you end up back at the command line. 16:01:26 nope 16:02:22 you'd have to modify one of the implementations to make that happen. 16:05:25 I bet it can be done in the existing code. Make a temp file called tmp.rx then vector over ok to have it call that then delete it if it exists. 16:16:18 Well, looks like I was overthinking it. This works: 16:16:19 echo 'help' > tmp.rx;./retro --with tmp.rx 16:17:00 (although that does not delete tmp.rx when done.) 16:18:45 make fullimage; echo 'help' > tmp.rx; ./retro --with tmp.rx 16:19:11 That will get you all the way to the help screen from a clean install. 16:56:56 --- quit: mnemnia (Remote host closed the connection) 16:59:29 Or you could vector over boot like so: 16:59:30 echo "needs help' ' help is boot save bye" > tmp.rx 16:59:30 ./retro --with ./tmp.rx 16:59:30 rm tmp.rx 16:59:30 ./retro 17:17:50 --- join: mnemnion (~mnemnion@2601:400:8080:4588:c916:fbd1:466e:5819) joined #retro 17:49:22 --- quit: mnemnion (Remote host closed the connection) 17:59:02 --- join: mnemnion (~mnemnion@c-68-40-49-135.hsd1.mi.comcast.net) joined #retro 18:15:23 --- quit: mnemnion (Remote host closed the connection) 18:29:42 --- join: mnemnion (~mnemnion@2601:400:8080:4588:515b:a08a:21de:9e43) joined #retro 18:51:44 --- quit: mnemnion (Remote host closed the connection) 19:09:00 --- join: mnemnion (~mnemnion@c-68-40-49-135.hsd1.mi.comcast.net) joined #retro 21:35:26 docl: the next release will have the full image as the default 21:37:21 I'm also looking into adding support for more functionality via the command line (including passing code and arguments to the image) 23:48:40 --- quit: mnemnion (Remote host closed the connection) 23:50:16 --- join: mnemnion (~mnemnion@2601:400:8080:4588:515b:a08a:21de:9e43) joined #retro 23:54:38 --- quit: mnemnion (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) 23:59:59 --- log: ended retro/15.12.12
