I'm trying to hack a quick social and spell editor and I'm not up to speed on how circle gets input from the user. Yes, I have read the archives and that's how I found the line_input function. I tried line_input and got it to work with the examples (after #defining CON_LINE_INPUT) but line_input then calls another function and without making a global variable for the input string I can't get the string into the editor function. This line_input is really close to what I want... but... What is the reason that other function is called? I'd like to get line_input() to just return the string from the player so I can use it. I guess I could make a global variable and change that everytime I do a line_input, but that really limits what I want to do with it. I'd like to call a function and have that function return the string the player typed on the screen.
