Jazz00006:
Well, i was making my own plugin, and im not the best @ C, and i was wondering if it was possible for me to get some help?

I don't want to post anything just yet, incase this might not be allowed.


But, is there a simplified list of the API calls you can make, and their corrent syntax, because i followed the tutorial, HowtoWritePlugins and it says to take a look @ plugin.h, but i cant read it properly, (becuase its not formated for easy reading IMHO.

saratoga:
You should probably ask more specific questions, or check out the IRC channel.  Or both.

BTW, you're allowed to post code.  Its all under GPL.

Jazz00006:
thanx, im off to the irc right now :)

Rincewind:
It is always a good idea to look at plugins made by others and "steal" the button handling, LCD code, etc. from there  :)

Jazz00006:
 :D

ok then, ive got my program working (to the extent of showing a splashscreen, and some text, what i wanted to know is;

How would i make a function that looked for a particular file;
i have no C coding experiance (well, not that much) so ill write it in english/basic/c (ish?)

If_file_exists as boolean (filepath)
{
blah, looking for file.
found{If_file_exists = true
}else{
If_file_exists = false
}
}

is there any way i can do that? (im going to look @ more 'basic' tutorials soon)
