User input in non-console mode?

BlitzMax Forums/BlitzMax Beginners Area/User input in non-console mode?

Is it possible to use the Input command when running a graphics mode or does it only work in console mode? I see that in the help it reads that you can redirect the I\O stream but I`m not sure what I`m looking for here?

I guess what I am saying is do I have to code my own function for games?

Thanks for any help,
Jason.

If it's for a game, code your own anyway. ;)

Yep, or use someone's graphics GUI module - there are several.
GA's framework might even have something (if you have it).
