Print results

How would you print the results of a game? Suppose you play the game, high score is saved to a file and then you want to print it?

What do you mean by print? Do you want to print on screen or print via a printer?

To print out information in your game you would need to use a text actor. Use sprintf to print the information you want to display. To print via a printer, you would have to save out your text into a file, easiest one is a text file. gE cannot print things for you but it can create the file for other programs to print.

I see. So, I could have it print as a text file. It must be a common thing to display the score results at the end of a game. Do you know which tutorials can explain it in detail?
