I'm trying a sample with Hugo and something is missing

[Tdarcos]

I notice one immediately glaring omission in the Hugo programming language. Include files.

Apparently you can't break up a hugo source into multiple source files and then include them. Even Turbo Pascal version 3 supported this, and I find the omission strange.

No, you can. I ended up with this for my last game:

Code: Select all

#include "verblib.g"					! grammar must come first
#include "hugolib.h"					! standard library routines
#include "contain.h"
#include "system.h"
#include "window.h"
#include "resource.h"
#include "cango.h"
#include "config.hug"
#include "jObjects.hug"
#include "jSceneryLibrary.hug"
#include "jScenery.hug"
#include "jPluralClass.hug"
#include "jVats.hug"
#include "jDaemons.hug"
#include "jIdleDaemons.hug"
#include "jTwinDaemon.hug"

Some of those I made myself and some of those I grabbed from other sources.

This SHELL.HUG file is what a lot of people use to get started. There's an example of including libraries in it:
