Programming EXPERT TEXT GLOBAL UI OS LAYER and most earlier versions of EXPERT TEXT GLOBAL

EXPERT TEXT GLOBAL v2.14 (and later) supports scripts that are programmed using JavaScript and JScript -to open applications, load local and remote graphics, load local and remote audio and video files - including Youtube video, and to open Google maps; EXPERT TEXT GLOBAL can open local and remote files of any description. The knowledge base may even include common or pertinent Google searches. The scripts are added to the conclusions of the knowledge base and are run by selecting Forward. You can make knowledge bases with EXPERT TEXT GLOBAL UI OS LAYER or with most Editors, and it is a good idea to make your own knowledge base out of the downloaded example.

Opening Knowledge bases from within Knowledge bases (using EXPERT TEXT GLOBAL UI OS LAYER, EXPERT TEXT GLOBAL UI 2015 v5.0 and any version that opens a default knowledge base when run.

Opening knowledge bases from knowledge bases...

1 Create a subfolder in your EXPERT TEXT GLOBAL UI OS LAYER (installation) folder.

2 Copy all files from your installation folder to your new subfolder.

3 Create your new "knowledge base.TXT" file in your new subfolder.

5 Add the open .EXE script to your knowledge base in your installation folder, to open EXPERT TEXT GLOBAL UI OS LAYER your new subfolder.

6 Add the open/refresh knowledge base.TXT script to the "knowledge base" in your installation folder and to the "knowledge base" in your new subfolder - and edit the folder names appropriately.

7 After opening the knowledge base in your new subfolder (using the knowledge base in your installation folder), select your refresh knowledge base script from the drop down Chain menu.

Opening Knowledge bases from within Knowledge bases (EXPERT TEXT GLOBAL UI 2013 v4.0)

The significance of knowledge bases that can open other knowledge bases so as to create larger and more intuitive information structures/models is obvious; a knowledge base information hierarchy can be expanded infinitely. The following script shows how to open another EXPERT TEXT GLOBAL knowledge base, while overwriting the currently open knowledge base. It is equally important that you are able to "refresh" the existing knowledge base using a fact such as " Refresh knowledge base..." together with the conclusion shown below.
EXPERT TEXT GLOBAL UI 2013 v5.0 and earlier members of the EXPERT TEXT GLOBAL family "occasionally" allow you to open certain external entities like Web pages only once, so it is sometimes imperative that you are able to refresh the current knowledge base so as to re-open external Web pages etc. Alternatively you can close and reopen EXPERT TEXT GLOBAL and reopen your knowledge base.

Important notes: To open knowledge bases you must make EXPERT TEXT GLOBAL the default Windows application for opening .TXT files. The shown script is not standard JavaScript because the "JavaScript language specification" forbids opening client files that are named directly in the Web page source (which is normally stored on the server side).

Adding Graphics to the Graphics Window in EXPERT TEXT GLOBAL
EXPERT TEXT GLOBAL allows you to add .BMP graphics files(that are local or from the Internet) to the conclusions using JavaScript. To open Graphics files you simply select Forward and select the appropriate fact that corresponds with the conclusion that holds the graphic.  The following JavaScript scripts show how to add local and internet BMP graphics:

 

<script type="text/javascript">
{
document.write('<IMG SRC="www.codelexicon.us/images/logo.bmp">');
}
</script>

OR,

<script type="text/javascript">
{
document.write('<IMG SRC="C:/images/logo.bmp">');
}
</script>


Graphics may be scrolled in the Graphic Window by holding the left mouse button and dragging the graphic. There are also Zoom tools to alter the size of the graphic - but to use Zoom you must include HEIGHT and WIDTH parameters as shown below. The dimensions (in pixels) are unrestricted, and EXPERT TEXT GLOBAL is able to download any size graphic.

NOTE: Using the downloads 2.14 (and earlier) you must leave "two" spaces between the graphic file name and "WIDTH".

<script type="text/javascript">
{
document.write('<IMG SRC="C:/images/logo.bmp"  WIDTH=300 HEIGHT=600>');
}
</script>

OR,

<script type="text/javascript">

}
</script>

Adding Bing maps to your Knowledge Base using coordinates

Coordinates are used widely in geographic information systems and are represented in one of three formats:

Decimal Minutes (GPS) : N40 41.35752 W74 2.67041
Decimal (WGS84) : 40.689292, -74.044507
Degrees Minutes Seconds : N 40° 41' 21.4512", W 74° 2' 40.2246"

The web address of a Bing map's coordinates is obtained by clicking on send; for example the resulting email for the Statue of Liberty provides the Web address http://binged.it/18uaGbF. This can be added to your knowledge base using the script below:

<html>

<head>

<title> Code Lexicon open URL </title>

<script type="text/javascript">

Adding Google maps to your Knowledge Base

Using EXPERT TEXT GLOBAL UI 2015 v5.0 (and later) you can add Google maps to your knowledge base, regardless of the web address length.

Earlier versions of EXPERT TEXT GLOBAL are restricted to 100-character web addresses.

http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&newwindow=1&q=N+Oak+Run+Trail,+Los+Angeles,+CA+90068,+USA

You can also add a house number to the above address, and it can be used to show maps of any place in the USA instantly, and once the Google map is displayed, you can also switch to Satellite images and to Google Earth images of the selected location.

Simply by adding the following script to a conclusion allows you to add Google maps to your Knowledge base. The shown example shows the Google map of Swindon - which is shown as a suffix in the full Web address.

<html>

<head>

<title> Code Lexicon open URL </title>

Adding Google maps to your Knowledge Base using coordinates

Coordinates are used widely in geographic information systems and are represented in one of three formats:

  1. Decimal Minutes (GPS) : N40 41.35752 W74 2.67041
  2. Decimal (WGS84) : 40.689292, -74.044507
  3. Degrees Minutes Seconds : N 40° 41' 21.4512", W 74° 2' 40.2246"

You may find that copying Google map coordinate addresses and pasting them into EXPERT TEXT GLOBAL knowledge bases sometimes does not work. The solution is to edit the Google map coordinate address as shown below:

Decimal Minutes (GPS) : N40 41.35752 W74 2.67041

http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&newwindow=1&q=N40+41.35752+W74+2.67041

Decimal (WGS84) : 40.689292, -74.044507

http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&newwindow=1&q=40.689292,+-74.044507

Degrees Minutes Seconds : N 40° 41' 21.4512", W 74° 2' 40.2246"

http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?hl=en&newwindow=1&q=N+40°+41'+21.4512",+W+74°+2'+40.2246"

NB you can obviously switch to Satellite images and to Google Earth images of the selected location.
