Hi, I could finally compile GNU APL and make it work; now I have to work on
the web interface. I asume the first thing to do is to hack the HTML/CSS
part.
Some questions though:
1) the program is a Read-Eval-Print-Loop; it is an interpreter for a
language (think to a big calculator in command line).
Having the pop-up dialog box for stdin coming over and over above the
console (with some fading effect) is not
very exciting; is there a way to have a more usable line of input
Something like a text field under the console. I think that if I get
that, I can probably even use CSS to make the user believe the text field
is the last line of the console.
2) Is there a way to have a very rudimentary history mechanism in the
input field (browsing the previous entered lines with arrow up/arrow down)?
3) Is there a way to get some permalink mechanism:
clicking on a link on the page should redirect to an URL containing
the last input line like: http://<BASE_URL>/?code=<whatever_last_line>
in order to allow the user to send by email or in a forum a link
containing the one-line code to be executed
Of course it would imply some way for the web page to detect such
?code=<whatever> part and directly feed it in the input box when the page
is loaded?
4) Is there some equivalent to VT100/ANSI escape codes for getting
minimal colors in the console?
Regards,
tb.
