sQLux run external file

Hi,

I am want to load an SuperBasic file created in a Linux editor or IDE, stored in a Linux directory.

The documentation on GIthub in sqlux.md says use the -b option, but the -b option is not present in the current version of sQLUX v1.0.5-101-8844d471-(2022-10-22)

I thought maybe define a Device and Boot Device in the sQLux command line and load the SuperBasic file from the Boot_Device. But boot file must be be called BOOT...

But does not seem to work.

Thanks,

I will updated my sQLux git and compile, using the new compile options and did this test:
sQLux running from command line
sQLux running from command line
Using the command line to define the SuperBasic command and size of Window, also using defaults in the sqlux.ini file:

Code: Select all

sqlux -g 512x256 -b 'print "Hello World"\\:for a=32 to 255: print chr$(a);: end for a'
I was going to write a script/macro to use an IDE to write the Superbasic file and run the file in sQLux, maybe VS Code or just VIM maybe an idea.
