Line 254:
Some languages (like gambas and visual basic) support two startup modes. Applications written on these platforms start with an open window that waits for events, and it is necessary to do some jiggerypokery to cause a main procedure to run instead. I was going to create a new task to demonstrate how to achieve this, and then I remembered this "scripted main". Maybe this can be reorganized to include these requirements? It is not necessarily a "scripted" main, because visual basic is compiled, so we would probably need a rename, though I have not decided on a name for this yet, I am open to ideas.

:FWIW in documentation that I have written, this is usually headed "Making the application startup from a main routine". [[User:Markhobley|Markhobley]] 22:08, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
:I would vote to start a new draft task for new topics as this is marked for a slow, lingering, death :-)
:I was wondering however, in your proposed task? Is it about, for example, clicking on a script file in windows to get the script to run versus clicking on the executable to get a [[wp:REPL|REPL]] to run on Windows? --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 06:34, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
