Save it to a file.

Try this:


and then to read your information:


You must make sure that the file doesn't already exist though, otherwise the command will fail, so check for it's existance using
file exist()

So:



And there you go.

I've got a question. Will this mean you can only have one thing saved, or can you make many save files (I can't test it because my DarkBASIC hasn't come yet, so im searching around for ideas)?

P.S. Dont try to go to my website, i closed it down and am starting a new one.

Until you close a file, you can keep writing to it, like a log book. Closing the file before you exit the program is important. At some point you will want to disable the escape key and catch it via scankey so that you can always include the close command when shutting down the program.
