Sooooooo.....My local hacker/IT guy wants to know when you're gonna make this thing work in reverse. Now we need a binary reader!

Tell him it does, and ask him if hes gonna buy a copy of the progy when i clean it up?

Anybody notice that if you press your up arrow you see each word in the reverse of how you typed it?

I did. Daron, run this code and try to get the same results.

(getstring T "\nPlease enter a charater array: ")

JohnK · « **Reply #20 on:** December 18, 2003, 05:38:10 PM »

No, how can that be a by-product? The "up" recalls the last non-nil thing you typed. (that is why the spaces are not displayed when you cycle thru the history.)

"Nope, I didn't realize that, what did you use to make it do that or is it simply a byproduct of the program?"

Converted or binary in the getstring function? There's the conversion. Binary in the text string function blew up after the first space. I have the T in there too. What gives?

Keith™ · « **Reply #22 on:** December 18, 2003, 05:48:40 PM »

Daron getstring T allows the user to enter spaces as part of the string, while if the T is left out of the function call, a space is regarded as a carriage return or the same as pressing the enter key.

Oh and Se7en, I would consider it a byproduct, simply because that is the way string input works, I was merely wondering if you had any particular routine to intentionally do it.

The command history displays user-input lines that contain spaces (such as AutoLISP expressions) and command options that accept text strings (such as GROUP descriptions or ATTDEF attribute values). AutoCAD interprets any space on the command line as a line terminator unless it is part of an AutoLISP command (enclosed in parentheses), part of a text string, or part of a name, such as a block or layer name.

I know that's what the T does. That's why I'm confused as to why after the first 01001110 it enters out. Here's my command line:

Quote

Command: (getstring T "blah: ")
blah: 01001110
"01001110 "

Command: 01101111 Unknown command "01101111". Press F1 for help.

Command: 01110000 Unknown command "01110000". Press F1 for help.

Command: 01100101 Unknown command "01100101". Press F1 for help.

Command: 00101100 Unknown command "00101100". Press F1 for help.

Command: 00100000 Unknown command "00100000". Press F1 for help.

Command: 01001001 Unknown command "01001001". Press F1 for help.

Command: 00100000 Unknown command "00100000". Press F1 for help.

Command: 01100100 Unknown command "01100100". Press F1 for help.

After a second look, I wonder if a double space enters it out?

JohnK · « **Reply #25 on:** December 18, 2003, 05:56:23 PM »

Nope. I wouldnt even know how to do that.

JohnK · « **Reply #26 on:** December 18, 2003, 05:58:50 PM »

Cause when you entered the binary it wasnt all on ONE line. It took up several lines. (from cutting and pasting out of the webpage.)

Keith™ · « **Reply #27 on:** December 18, 2003, 06:01:50 PM »

Nope, two or more spaces will not cancel the command or end it. Try checking the value of T. We had a dumbass one time that assigned T as a variable in a lisp routine that subsequently ended up being NIL, so.... every program with the T used in it to collect info, would crash miserably in what seemed to be a random fashion. I finally figured out what was going on and solved the problem.

Try this:

Quote

Command: !t
T

If you get the same result, the problem may be elsewhere.

On another note...
the result you are showing is indicative of an extra carriage return in a lisp program.

daron · « **Reply #28 on:** December 18, 2003, 06:24:32 PM »

I think the latter. I've never set the value of T. I know better. Although, there was a bonus tool that did once. Duh. There isn't a person here that knows how to even set a quote, even though I've shown them.

Dent sits in awe and wonder trying to figure out just what the Hell they are talking about!! Do not try to explain it to me! There are MANY things in life best left unknown and I think this is one of them. T-Bear's wife said he read this stuff and now he's on his back on the floor with all five pointed at the ceiling.
