first off, these are the parameter types:

a = any

s = string

x = index = integer number

v = value = floating point number

i = image

n = node = executable stuff in { }

0 = none

next is the list of all system calls

the character in front of the space is the return type, the characters after the space are the parameters needed

some of those will also be called automatically for you. for example

5 +3

will result in

Add(5,3)

btw TenFex supports * / prioritization

which means

5 + 3*2 = 5 + (3*2) = 11

this is in contrast to ass calc

[>>img\tentacle\stand_c.bmp] will load an image which you can also store in a variable (preferred because then you can reuse it fast :) )

images will be stored inside the FEX effect file, so no need to give them to your users ;)

if you want TenFex to enumerate Kara or Line or Chr or Pixels, tell it to do so, for example:

FUNC["perLine"]=

{

    Print( “oneLineMore” );

}

EnumLines( "perLine" );

lastly, in TenFex you “emit” objects which will then be rendered.

to emit, you give the start and end time as well as the line, kara and character you would like the emitted object to contain. also, emitting an object requires you to give a drawing function

Emit( "ten_jump_tg", CurLineStart-0.2, CurLineStart, CurLine, 0, -1 );

will emit the function “ten_jump_tg” to be drawn the 0.2 seconds before line start, containing the 0-th Kara of the current line, and all characters (thus the -1)

ten_jump_tg can than easily draw almost anything:

FUNC["ten_jump_tg"]=

{

DrawFinal( _img_text, _posx, _posy, 100, 100, 1 );

}

DrawFinal takes:

an image

the position

the scaling in x and y

and an alpha value 0...1

variables starting with _ are member variables of the emitted object, some of those will be calculated automatically

Emit will automatically set the following member variables for your:

timing:

_start

_end

what?

_line

_kara

_char

images:

_img_text

_img_border

pos:

_posx

_posy
