Loop counter variable display
Hello everyone,
how can I send output to the screen from a running script or tcl, in such a way that if a loop is executing I will see the rolling counter on my screen as the records are processed in the loop. I do not want the screen to scroll, though. In other words can a var's value be painted on the screen at a particular location over and over, without necessitating a newline as well as not being placed to the right of the prior value displayed?
I do not seem to get it , I tried all flavors of echo, puts, flush, clear etc. but no success.
I hope you understood my question....
Looking forward to an answer from someone.
Thanks.
G.

Hi!
Can anyone explain this? The counter CDR_count should go on forever, but it suddenly resets at every step of the FOR loop (I know this because $_file has exactly 378 records). However, the counter reset is OUTSIDE the FOR loop. What's going on??

so, the above counter doesn't work, already tried both -lt & -gt, and changed || to &&
so what am I missing?
Thanks in advance (5 Replies)

scroll_screen
scroll_screen(3alleg4) Allegro manual scroll_screen(3alleg4)
NAME
scroll_screen - Requests a hardware scroll request. Allegro game programming library.
SYNOPSIS
#include <allegro.h>
int scroll_screen(int x, int y);
DESCRIPTION
Attempts to scroll the hardware screen to display a different part of the virtual screen (initially it will be positioned at 0, 0, which is
the top left corner). You can use this to move the screen display around in a large virtual screen space, or to page flip back and forth
between two non-overlapping areas of the virtual screen. Note that to draw outside the original position in the screen bitmap you will have
to alter the clipping rectangle with set_clip_rect().
Mode-X scrolling is reliable and will work on any card, other drivers may not work or not work reliably. See the platform-specific section
of the docs for more information.
Allegro will handle any necessary vertical retrace synchronisation when scrolling the screen, so you don't need to call vsync() before it.
This means that scroll_screen() has the same time delay effects as vsync().
RETURN VALUE
Returns zero on success. Returns non-zero if the graphics driver can't handle hardware scrolling or the virtual screen is not large enough.
