Mabey have it compacted?

[Doyle3694]

function mine()
   for i = 1,2 do
	 turtle.digDown()
	 turtle.down()
   end
   turtle.dig()
   turtle.select(3)
   turtle.place()
   turtle.select(2)
   for i = 1,2 do
	 turtle.up()
	 turtle.placeDown()
   end
   turtle.select(1)
   turtle.place()
end

It doesn't really shorten the code, but makes it abit more eyepleasing to read.

Hmm...I'd have thought you'd want the overall program to lay more than two mines. Also, using a sand/gravel (gravel makes stone pressure plates harder to spot, if this is intended for PVP) rather than dirt causes the mine to drop the entity which triggers the mine into a pit, which can be made deeper. But this involves reducing the damage to other entities which may be about (though having the tnt under a layer of dirt also does that).

Using nested for loops would let you easily lay a larger minefield, if that's desired.
