Using TextPad with Liberty Basic

Post by pjafrombbay »

Hi!

Has anybody tried to use TextPad (TP) with Liberty Basic (LB)?

Source code used:

' Hello world
print "Hello world!"

I have the tool configured TP as:

Command: C:\Program Files\Liberty BASIC v4.03\liberty.exe
Parameters: -R $DOSfile
Initial Folder: $FileDir

Note: Capture output is 'greyed out' - odd!

And it will pass the source code to LB and run it into the LB output window. I would like to run LB minimised using the '-M' switch but that causes LB to stop with an error message:

Runtime error: "closeWindow:" not understood

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Regards,
Peter :?

You might need quotes around the command since there is a space in the path. Just a WAG.

Also, if you expand the variables and run it from the command line, do you get the same results?
