# MultICE ## The MultIplexed Computing Environment for OpenComputers ### Base OS API #### s(name,function,environment) Spawns a process from `function` under the name `name`, with the environment table specified in `environment`. Environment doesn't really have much use right now. #### l() Returns the last event. Doesn't actually work right now. #### h(...) Pushes an event to the queue, with whatever data you specify. Generally used for IPC. ### Module APIs #### library/print.lua These functions should be display device indepentent. ##### print(...) Displays its arguments on the display device as a string, with a newline. ##### write(...) Displays its arguments on the display device as a string, without a newline #### drivers/keyboard.lua This is a device-specific driver. ##### readln() Reads a line of input from the keyboard. #### library/net.lua Note: Settings have to be set in the kernel module, at the line ``` tM,nP,nID = {}, 4096, 1 ``` Where 4096 is the port and 1 is the device ID. Device ID can be any data type, port must be a number. Network messages can be read from `_G.ev`, they have the type `net_msg` ##### ns(id,po,msg) Sends network message `msg` to device `id` on port `po`
