Dear all,

I've added one more script to the example script collection for NX: the game of Ludo (in German "Mensch ärgere dich nicht"), which is essentially the result of the airplane flight to my vacation:

https://next-scripting.org/xowiki/file/docs/nx/examples/tk-ludo.html?html-co...

One interesting part is the usage of the "expression converter": NX supports user-defined argument checkers and converters, where converters might transform arguments. This can be used e.g. to normalize values. In this game, this feature is used to "normalize" expressions to values. This means, instead of having to write

$obj point [expr {$x-$d}] [expr {$y-$d}] [expr {$x+$d}] [expr {$y+$d}]

one can write

$obj point $x-$d $y-$d $x+$d $y+$d

when the 4 arguments of method "point" are defined as expression converters. This is at least an option, when performance is not critical.
