I am new here. Can somebody show me how to save as a .Kix Extension. I am using notepad to write the codes, but when I save as .kix extension, it gives me a tex file.


Thanks,
tony

I hate notepad for Win9x. Before you name the file, change to all files (*.*) then type the name.

If it is still filename.kix.txt then just save it as .TXT, goto DOS or explorer and rename the file to .KIX and re-open it in notepad.

Instead of Notepad, I use TextPad by Helios Software. Have a look here. There are plenty of other programs like it. TextPad colours the KiX commands and functions making it easier to read.

Instead of

break on
$a="123x"
$b=val($a)
$a ?
$b ?
if $a=$b
"equal"
else
"not equal"
endif
?

It looks more like

code:

break on


$a="123x"
$b=val($a)


$a ?
$b ?


if $a=$b
"equal"
else
"not equal"
endif


?

p.s. I am not affiliated with Helios Software yada yada yada...

It sounds as if you may have the extensions hidden (the crazy Windows default setting). In such a case any file you create in notepad will be given the .txt extension, in addition to any other extension you may specify. You can change this in explorer through the view/options menu.

Like cj, and I suspect probably most people here, I hate notepad. There are so many relacements available, many of which are free, that there's no reason to continue to suffer the worst "editor" ever to come out of Microsoft. The best option is to use an editor which supports colour syntax highlighting and create a config to suit Kixtart scripts, if it doesn't already have one.

Sorry cj, I wrote my reply before completely reading yours, hence the duplication of suggestions.
