confused on inputs and outputs for stools or entities

[cokacola]

Hello, could someone show me a simple example of a stool that spawns a box with the input of something like "A" and an output of X,Y,Z and X,Y,Z are only set when A is above 0?
Its not that I really want to use it, but rather so I can actually understand the wire input and output functions for lua, as I am overly confused.
If not, can you at least point me in the right direction?

Off topic: what happened to the wiremod.com wiki?(wiremod.com/wiki)?

The Wiremod wiki merged with the Gmod wiki.

This is just part of the code needed to get this entity working (Remember you need more stuff in initialize like PhysicsInit and whatever)

function ENT:Initialize()
    self.Inputs = Wire_CreateInputs( self.Entity, {"A"} )
    self.Outputs = Wire_CreateOutputs( self.Entity, {"X", "Y", "Z", "XYZ [VECTOR]"} )
    self.AllowChange = false
end

function ENT:TriggerInput( inputname, value )
    if (inputname == "A") then
        if (value == 0) then
            self.AllowChange = false
        else
            self.AllowChange = true
        end
    end
end

function ENT:Think()
    if (self.AllowChange) then
        local pos = self:GetPos()
        Wire_TriggerOutput( self.Entity, "XYZ", pos )
        Wire_TriggerOutput( self.Entity, "X", pos.x )
        Wire_TriggerOutput( self.Entity, "Y", pos.y )
        Wire_TriggerOutput( self.Entity, "Z", pos.z )
    end
end

Ahh, thank you
that was very helpful, and I think if I look at some code, I should get the idea of everything else an entity needs
