custom definition files access

[qwertylol]

how do I write this?

it's a text file that will contain definitions like these

a code will generate relevant information for each point of pixel

point_number = 1

x_offset = #

y_offset = #

color_1 = #

color_2 = #

point_number = 2

x_offset = #

y_offset = #

color_1 = #

color_2 = #

how do I write a file I/O that will output a new section of

this

point_number = 1

x_offset = #

y_offset = #

color_1 = #

color_2 = #

and then later read it ?

You have a lot of choices. One of the easier ones might be a comma separated values (.csv) format. That way you get one complete entry per line. It is particularly easy with AutoIt to read/write files by whole lines. Just set up your convention, like:

point_number, x_offset, y_offset, color_1, color_2

Look up the following in the help file and check out the example code there:

FileOpen()

FileClose()

FileRead()

FileReadLine()

FileWrite()

FileWriteLine()
