A terminal designed specially for developers written in Visual Basic.
DevMinal is a Visual Basic project, aiming towards the simplicity of basic computer functions. It is similar to Command Prompt, but with additional features, which’ll be added time by time.
You can use specific words to replace in-built values
| Replacement | Description |
|---|---|
| %sd% | Selected directory |
| %title% | Terminal title |
| %getline% | Reads line from DevMinal |
DevMinal can also run scripts. Scripts are written in .dms file extension. There's no difference between commands and scripts. Both are same, except scripts are closed-wide. Commands won't be shown in display, but will run in background. Errors will still be displayed.
DevMinal is coded to work with packages. What does "packages" term mean? It's simple. You can make some files, which are coded in Visual Basic and can be executed as external commands
This is the easiest thing. Just put ".dmp" files into a folder called "packages" which is located at DevMinal's executable file directory.
At the most, you can put packages into seperate folders.
A further step of latest build (02) is that you don't need to make a pull request to add a (let's say) DevMinal internal command.
You can code commands yourself if you know just A BIT of Visual Basic.
Example (msgbox.dmp):
If(cmdarg.Length = 0) Then ' cmdarg is command argument which is automatically declared.
Console.WriteLine("Error -> This command requires a valid argument!") ' Send error that there is no command argument
Return
End If
MsgBox(cmdarg) ' Makes messagebox with command argument as message
