Extensions

Extensions are additional functions, usually developed in C or Fortran, which extend the core functionality of LME, the programming language of Sysquake. Extensions are grouped in so-called shared libraries or dynamically-linked libraries (DLL) files. At startup, Sysquake loads all extensions it finds in the folder LMEExt in the same location as the Sysquake program file. Each extension initializes itself and usually displays a line of information in the Command window. No further action is needed in order to use the new functions.

You can also develop and add your own extensions, as explained in the next chapter.

Here is the list of the extensions currently provided with Sysquake.
