Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

stanleyella,

I use opera and chrome and Annex did something but where is vga and base.
picomite is so much easier to get up and running, I think the fun factor with esp32 isn't fun anymore, too much stuff for a hobbyist.
I'll stick with picomite :( :)

Unfortunately no VGA support with Annex Basic and everything with a Web server that supports HTML (Is PRINT for a Terminal) and Java or a serial terminal such as TeraTerm (PRINT) but there is also a built-in terminal in the web server with WLOG instead of PRINT so very flexible .


Doctor,

Here you will find everything about Annex WIFI RDS Basic.

https://cicciocb.com/forum/

That's right, everything is there and to see everything you have to be logged in.
This was not necessary with the website Annex WIFI RDS Basic and one had access to everything including a download page with annex .bin files and annex_package_full with many examples.
But somewhere in this forum there is a link to the old website Annex WIFI RDS or register for free so that everything is visible including the latest Annex Basic firmware.

I think that old site was one that I found elsewhere - but it's dead now. It looks like he might have replaced it with the Wordpress one but never completed that or set up downloads from it. I can't find any downloads or even up to date info on Annex anywhere now apart from on the forum.

A copy of earlier (about 2020) Annex downloads:

Yay! Got it running now!

(You MUST get the local IP address right. Remember to get the subnet right and tell it the HTTP port number...  :) )

It might be worth reading the manual now. :)

Why does everything to do with Annex have to be in such tiny text and icons I wonder?

------------------------
Later...

This is doing my head in this morning. I think I need more coffee and dried frog pills. I've never used a system where:

For I = 1 to 5
Print I
Next I
End

appears to do nothing at all (apart from disappear if you don't save it first). Nothing in the Output window either. I feel like I'm in a system where someone tore out all the first pages of the manual and threw them away. The help file seems to be great, providing lots of in-depth stuff - providing you already know the system.

PRINT goes to the serial terminal (which you may not have if the ESP32 is plugged into a phone charger and not your PC, and you don't have a connection from the serial pins to a usb/serial module on your PC). WLOG goes to the browser window log pane. Analogous with the PicoMite where TEXT goes to the LCD (for instance), and PRINT goes to the Teraterm terminal.

There is also a third output option--build and present a web page which will appear in your browser on the OUTPUT page.

I thought it might be something like that. I've not looked deeper (currently playing with a tentative design for PicoGAME 3 / PicoGame Pro), but I'm assuming that the Output Window shows the results of HTML. I need to do some serious reading at some point.

Here's a simple menu example based on a list box, after I clicked on the list box and chose "second", got a response, and clicked again on the list box to make another choice.



' Simple listbox internal menu; annex menu example
cls
options$ = "first,second,third,fourth"   'comma-delimited list of menu options which correspond to same-name subroutine branches
choice$ = ""                                         'variable to hold the menu selection
message$ = ""                                     'empty variable for displaying selection confirmation message
a$ = textbox$(message$) + "

"
a$ = a$ + listbox$(choice$,options$) + "

"
html a$
onhtmlchange chosen
wlog "waiting"
wait

chosen:
refresh
gosub choice$
return

first:
message$ = "First was chosen"
refresh
return

second:
message$ = "Chose Second this time"
refresh
return

third:
message$ = "Not first or second..."
refresh
return

fourth:
message$ = "Oh no, Last again"
refresh
return

Mixtel90,

If you connect to the ESP module with a USB connection to TeraTerm, the IP address used is also displayed if you do not remember it for a while.
If you have not yet created an IP address, always use AP mode with 192.168.4.1 and do not forget your password, otherwise the neighbors can watch. But that can be read on the link of morgs67.
When you are in the editor page you can press the F2 key for help.
If you used the link from morgs67 and got the Annex_Package_full_1.2 from downloads then passw: "annex" and in the help files Annex_Help_1.42 and Annex32_Help_1.41 unblock in properties.
