# RRE Listener and Extensions In this file I am implementing the interactive listener that RRE will run when started with `-i` or `-c`. ## Console Input The RRE interface provides a keyboard device. This exposes it via `c:get`. ~~~ {{ 'io:Keyboard var :identify @io:Keyboard n:zero? [ #1 io:scan-for dup n:negative? [ drop 'IO_DEVICE_TYPE_0001_NOT_FOUND s:put nl ] [ !io:Keyboard ] choose ] if ; ---reveal--- :c:get (-c) identify @io:Keyboard io:invoke ; }} ~~~ Now that I can read characters, it's time to support reading strings. I do this via two words. The first is `parse-until`. This will setup a temporary string as an input buffer, then read input, passing each character ot a provided quote. When the quote returns `TRUE`, it ends and returns the string. When not `TRUE` it will add the character to the buffer. ~~~ {{ :gather (c-) dup [ #8 eq? ] [ #127 eq? ] bi or [ drop ] [ buffer:add ] choose ; :cycle (q-qc) repeat c:get dup-pair swap call not 0; drop gather again ; ---reveal--- :parse-until (q-s) [ s:empty buffer:set cycle drop-pair buffer:start ] buffer:preserve ; }} ~~~ Using this, a simple `s:get` can be implemented very easily as a quote which looks for an end of line character. ~~~ :s:get (-s) [ [ ASCII:LF eq? ] [ ASCII:CR eq? ] bi or ] parse-until ; ~~~ ## Scripting: Command Line Arguments RRE also provides access to the command line arguments passed to a script. The next few words map the scripting device to words we can use. ~~~ {{ 'io:Scripting var :identify @io:Scripting n:zero? [ #9 io:scan-for dup n:negative? [ drop 'IO_DEVICE_TYPE_0009_NOT_FOUND s:put nl ] [ !io:Scripting ] choose ] if ; ---reveal--- :sys:argc (-n) identify #0 @io:Scripting io:invoke ; :sys:argv (n-s) s:empty swap identify #1 @io:Scripting io:invoke ; :include (s-) identify #2 @io:Scripting io:invoke ; }} ~~~ ## Interactive Listener The main part of this file is the *listener*, an interactive read-eval-print loop. RRE's C part will access a couple parts of this, based on the startup flags passed. ~~~ 'NoEcho var {{ :version (-) @Version #100 /mod n:put $. c:put n:put ; :eol?
