Hi

It actually does work, try this:
Code:
#include <acknex.h>
#include <default.c>
#include <strio.c>

STRING* global_str = "";

function main(){
	
	str_cpy(global_str, " ");
	str_cat(global_str, "hello world");
	
	while(!key_esc){
		
		draw_text(global_str, 10, 10, COLOR_WHITE);
		
		wait(1);
		
	}
	
}

file_open_read()
file_open_write()
file_open_append()
file_exists()

Look these up in the manual, they should get you started...

My first advice would be to learn to love the manual. Use it all the time, eventually you will understand how to do these things. For playing media files, you need to look up "media_play" and related functions.

I don't use any media files in my games so I can't help you there...

Okay, if you can choose files and play them, then that is a great start.

Like me, you will write a function that does everything you need it to do. THEN you will discover that Lite-c has a built in command that does the same thing laugh

I would recommend posting a new topic, since this is different from your original problem.
