[Gambas-user] Timer question

2009-03-31 Thread richard terry
I want to be able to reset the timers time to 0 at will, without stopping the timer, so that I can link it to the keypress of a textbox. Every time the user hits a key, the place the timer is up to is reset, once they lag, then the timer event fires. Dosn't seem to be such a property. Thanks.

I think you'd need to DIM interfaceoutput AS String SHELL "ifconfig blah blah" to interfaceoutput Then you'll need to split it - is it space or return separated? E.g. (return separated) allinterfaces = Split(interfaceoutput, "\n") "allinterfaces" is an array that now contains all the interface
