 Example | |
| The actual terminating part of CTRL+T is defined in the bios for os.pullEvent. This can however be overridden to catch terminate and modify it's effects, as shown below. Note that holding CTRL+T, and it firing the terminate event is independent of key events and is hard coded into ComputerCraft. | |
| Code |
function os.pullEvent(_sFilter)
local event = { os.pullEventRaw(_sFilter) }
if event[1] == "terminate" then
error("Terminate Event Found", 0)
end
return unpack(event)
end
