PicoTerm is a simple PICO-8 CLI template. It can be used as a basis for command-line games and programs.
To get commands, modify execute() with your command handling code. In order to print a line, use echo().
If you use this in a project please credit DivergentClouds and link back to this page.

Trying to export a binary or html file from a file that doesn't have the
_init() _update() _draw() |
loop will result in a screen like in the picture. This particular image was from the code
print("test"). |
Please add a flag when launching a cart from the command line to make the cart path relative to the PICO-8 carts folder rather than the current directory of the command prompt/terminal. In addition, a feature to launch within a certain PICO-8 subdirectory rather than the root folder would be nice.
If you multiply a fraction that isn't a power a number greater than 1 the returned result will be incorrect (for example PICO-8 returns 9.9991 from print(0.1*100)). I'm aware that this is a problem inherent to fixed point numbers, however some special cases would be greatly appreciated.
When pressing a button on the keyboard with devkit enabled while paused through Splore the keystrokes will register and take effect when unpaused.

Similarly to how you can enable the devkit mouse it would be nice if you could enable the keyboard for use in carts. This would allow for things like text adventures and keyboard shortcuts for things like roguelikes.
A 2-player pong variant with lasers
Left and right change laser color
-Red speeds the ball up
-Orange slows the ball down
-Yellow changes the ball's y-direction
-Green changes the ball's x-direction
Catching a laser with your paddle will increase your ammo by 1
If player 1 wants to use a keyboard and player 2 wants to use a controller, then you must launch PICO-8 with the following command
<PICO-8 path> -joystick 1 |
