Re: Plz help now

You mean to type something and scratch would use it? I think you can sort of do that with lists somehow...

I'm taking a break from Scratch until 2.0 comes out. Any messages sent between then and now probably won't be read - sorry.

Well, you could create a list, and when you type something it adds a letter or number or whatever to the list. it should work, I've never tried it but I've seen it done before.

An input box would really be nice!  Unfortunately, Scratch doesn't have one yet.  To handle input, you can set up a bunch of When Key Pressed scripts - one for each letter on the keyboard - and have each one add a letter to a list.   That's one approach.  Like this:
