Title: Keywords
Post by: kolyamatic on January 25, 2013, 08:04:15 PM
So, I was wondering, whether someone could make a "decent" explanation for (some of) the keywords.
The example files only help in some cases, and I have not found any file of such description as above mentioned.
The IDE also only helps little, as it uses terms which are unobvious to the not knowing.

So, would anyone be willing to explain (maybe even with little examples) them?
(the more advanced ones like spriteanimation are preferred as I think the basics are rather obvious)

Or send me a link/file I am missing out here?

Unfortunately documentation isn't finished, yet. A draft can be found on http://egsl.retrogamecoding.org/documentation/egsldocumentation.html

Helpful already! Thanks!

Have you got an idea, when the documentation will be continued or even finished?

No idea, yet. I am changing the documentation format at the moment, so I can easily make HTML, PDF, DOC or XCHM files.

Good idea. What format are you using?

That looks really good. Does the free version allow to create files in all supported formats without any limitations (size limits, watermarks etc.)?

In the free version there is one line "created with ..." But it's a rather small font so it's not annoying.
