Hi, I found HotDraw's tool state machine editor [1] very interesting as a graphical editor for a "syntax-directed translator". The state machine transforms a stream of mouse events into a stream of commands on the structured drawing. Did I push the analogy too far?
I was wondering if anyone knows similar examples of graphical editor for grammars? Moreover, we didn't find (yet) a good metaphor for writing programs in general purpose programming language in a graphical editor. Do you think that might change with "domain specific languages"? Thank you to everyone on this list for the very interesting discussions and links. - Benoit [1] http://st-www.cs.illinois.edu/users/brant/HotDraw/Conversion.html _______________________________________________ fonc mailing list fonc@vpri.org http://vpri.org/mailman/listinfo/fonc
