What's the point in the lesson browser?

[shakeygames]

Hey all; first post on the forum.

I got LibertyBASIC recently and I've just noticed the lesson .lsn files, and that you can read them through a built in lesson browser. I think that's really cool, and I'm wondering how it's used.

Do people use the lesson browser to create their own lessons on Liberty and post them online or is it used for something else? And if it's not the latter, then is there a particular site / place where people post and host these tutorials, or do they just post them anywhere?

Thanks.

Hi there and welcome to LB!

The lesson system on LB is one of its best features, but is very under used. The first time you run LB ideally use the Help menu both for all the reference material about its syntax and commands, but also to run the tutorial which is the archetypal lsn file. However you can always run lsn files by going to File --> Open and selecting files of type '.lsn'.

I find it great for creating a resource to show how a particular aspect of LB programming is done, and also as a way of collecting together the improvements, corrections and additions I make to a program. Very helpful if you return to the code later, since it attaches comments and explanations to the various code sections..

You'll find some material examples on my LB site- eg www.diga.me.uk/indexDemo.html and www.diga.me.uk/LBlessonExamples.html
