On iOS the soft keyboard can not use ESC etc.

I think an edit command is much better than my temporary code! The logic can keep clear.

[FreeBlues]

We can add an button icon on top of editor like other sprite/music.. icons, click it will exit.

I will try to finish it, wait a few minutes...

[FreeBlues]

Good job! I only finished to add the command edit.

It works very well on mac and iOS, but a strange thing ,on my mac and iPad, the exit icon can not see.

[FreeBlues]

I am a newbie of pico-8, so I need to learn what is the slot 13, after get it clear, I will add the icon manually :)

Now I will study the whole code of neko-8 and try to port it to a Raspberry Pi + LCD, then we can get an entity neko-8!

I'm thinking for another solution - on screen controls. They will make you able to use arrows also. What do you think? Another option is to add edit command.

[egordorichev]

Or another thing, I probably should do, is implement my own on screen keyboard. Yep, will do that.

[egordorichev]

The only thing is, you won't be able to exit 😆

[egordorichev]

Added that in the latest commit, be sure to pull again.

But again, this is tmp.

[egordorichev]

Hmm, try to replace it's position in editors/init.lua:94 and editors/init.lua:118 with manual values, for example x = 185, y = 121.

I don't have any mobile devices, so I can't check it, sorry.

[FreeBlues]

The close function is ok, only the icon can not display, so we need not change the cords of x and y, they are correct.
I think maybe the No. 13 icon is not exist, because when I change it to 12, then the right bottom corner will show an music icon.

[egordorichev]

Hm, did you change neko.n8? If so, override it with a new one.
Edit: just type folder and delete neko.n8.

[FreeBlues]

Pull it get the message of :

Air:neko8 admin$ git pull
Already up-to-date.
Air:neko8 admin$

Then rm it and clone again, but still no icon...

[egordorichev]

Hm, then edit neko.n8 your self, and add icon at slot 13.

[egordorichev]

The thing with this is, that neko8 has two save dirs: project root dir and another dir hidden in app data (you can open it with folder command). If you have a file in hidden dir, and in root dir, it will prefer hidden one. Saving saves all files to hidden dir. So if you had edited neko.n8 and it saved to hidden dir, changing one in the root folder wouldn't result in anything. That's weird, and i'm looking for a workaround.

[egordorichev]

I recommend you to have a look at this API manual: https://neko250.github.io/pico8-api/ Neko8 doesn't implement all calls just yet and it doesn't support memory at all. But you can look up all available API calls here: https://github.com/egordorichev/neko8/blob/master/main.lua#L1069

OK, thanks, I will go to read the docs.
