I've been trying for a while to make the chat program run something after, but I'm not sure how to do this. Help? I tried changing a couple things, but I'm not sure how your code works exactly with the whole "/exit" thing.

for channels you can modify you recieve and send functions o the channel can be a text!!

uhmmm. So I'm not sure why, but I'm on my friends server with this chat and whenever i join, leave, or chat, it says it twice...

I think you are printing it first.
Delete that line
(For example:
input = read()
print(input)
rednet.send(input)
rednet.receive()
)
delete 'print(input)' here

When you type '/exit' the function is called in the commands table (comD), it then queues the event 'exit' which the function 'exitEventListen' is waiting for, when that function returns it causes parallel function to also return, exiting the program.

If you wanted to run a program on exit, you could either add shell.run("<program name>") right at the bottom under parallel or add another function in to run after the parallel function has returned.

Hope this helps

Kinda like a label instead of number type thing? I could do something like that.

This was fixed ages ago...

I tried tweaking this part. Gives me an error when i open some other things and has a little blinking cursor even when other programs are running.

function exitEventListen()
  while true do
	os.pullEvent("exit")
	modem.closeAll()
	term.clear()
	term.setCursorPos(1,1)
	shell.run("/mrom/menus/rednet")
	return exit
  end
end

also tried this

function exitEventListen()
  while true do
	os.pullEvent("exit")
	modem.closeAll()
	term.clear()
	term.setCursorPos(1,1)
	return
	shell.run("/mrom/menus/rednet")
  end
end

EDIT: The error it gave me was this:

parallel:22: serialize:1: attemp to index ? (a nil value)

I tried that and it just exits when I type /exit
and I have no clue why



EDIT: by exit, I mean it just drops you into the terminal and doesn't run the program.

Okay, I'll look into it.

Can you add a function to change your nickname by typing /nick followed by your username?

As you requested, I have now added this in

Wow, that was fast. I was trying to figure out how to code it myself but i'm still learning this programming.

Yeah, I made this program to be extendible, its quite easy to add more commands, just make a new table in the comD table with a run function and help variable.

You can pretty much add whatever you want
