This simple code works fine with Windows, but not with Ubuntu 20.04, no console is dipayed.
Code: Select all
OpenConsole()
PrintN("Waiting 5 secs before quit...")
Delay(5000)
This will run on linux, but again no console is displayed.
Code: Select all
OpenConsole()
x$ = "Waiting 5 secs before quit..."
ConsoleLocate(1,1)
PrintN(X$)
Debug X$
Delay(5000)
What am I missing?
Thanks

Hi Gary,
Your two examples work if you compile as described in
help
"
If your program is intended to be a pure console application (i.e. not a GUI application which sometimes opens a console) then you must remember to set the executable format to 'Console' when you are compiling your programs. "
Compiler > Compiler option > Executable Format > [ Console ]
PS.
- As see in help too,
ConsoleLocate() need
EnableGraphicalConsole(1)
- To see what happend in console, you can use also Input()
