#Modular computer programs

Ok. so a quick rundown on how to make a program. This is kind of a shitty documentation, but oh well I was asked to.
|

|
||||
|
||||
## Base setup
|
||||
This is how the base program is setup. the rest is mostly tgui stuff. I'll use the ntnetmonitor as a base

Probably pretty self explanatory, but just in case.

Will probably be expanded when new features come around or I get asked to mention something.
