• How to?

    Is the most accepted way to get something out to the screen is to use a mpl?

    I was thinking of taking some code I had done previously and redo it to fit mystic...but not sure I understand Pascal well enough.

    You have a few options really, quickest is Write and WriteLN.

    Write('hello world!')
    WriteLN('hello world with a line feed')

    You can use pipe codes for placement and also WriteXY if you do not want to
    use pipe codes. =)

    Cheers!

    There are a lot of ways to get stuff out to the screen with Mystic: GD with
    the file path in data, GA is the ANSI Gallery, GT shows a line in data, Even
    in linux DD with cat path/filename in data ending in |PA to pause it while
    it's read. No need for MPL.
