i'm still working on my BootCD. I have many troubles fixed by now but still some resist.
There are some issues. For example the defined function. I want to use it to check if a variable with the name for a makro was set within the config-section. Wether or not the makro is called for execution or a simple command like "memdisk image".
So i'm using:
CODE
if defined["$sm11_MAKRO"]; then goto $sm11_MAKRO; else $sm11_CMD $sm11_PARM
but this always ends up within the else condition regardless if the variable exists or not. I've tried defined[$sm11_MAKRO] aswell as defined ["sm11_MAKRO"]. No change so far.
Another thing is the charset used within isolinux/cdshell. Does anyone know which is used? I tried typical DOS-Ascii but that didn't work. I made therefor a small script to display all characters between 128 and 255.
CODE
set textColor=color[white on black]

Maybe this is useful to anyone. It was for me!
I hope this webforum isn't converting the chars. And a really BIG ISSUE for me: I would really like to have a function which retrieves me the value for a given variablename. Sounds weird? Well, let me explain. A lot of script-lines are of the stile
CODE
if compare["$var1" == "1"]; then goto do1
if compare["$var2" == "1"]; then goto do2
if compare["$var2" == "1"]; then goto do2
etc.
Now if i could use something like
CODE
set count=1
loop:
if compare[getValue("$var$<$count") == "1"]; then goto do$<$count
goto loop
loop:
if compare[getValue("$var$<$count") == "1"]; then goto do$<$count
goto loop
this would save a LOT of code lines, no?
Maybe Mike can tell us more about this?
Thanx, Plauderer
