My fellow FuseBoxers/Wireframers!!
The non-database version I have up on http://bjork.net allows you to split
your WF up into sub-applications. It also allows for some links to be
separated out under a MENU heading. It doesn't do much else!!
Although I have toyed with the idea of a complete FuseBox-definition DTD, I
urge you all to avoid this temptation.
Let's keep a single simple version that we all use. That has its own
benefits, of course, but it also encapsulates the whole point of wireframes:
ie., a non-developer-editable text file to demonstrate and define the flow
of an application. In other words, all you need or want is a description of
what this FuseAction does,and where it can go from here. If you try to
include anything more about your application, then you will run into
problems. The only enhancements we should be considering are those that
make the wireframes EASIER to use and comprehend. That's why I took away
the database, added a "refresh" link, and made the disinction between links
on-the-page and links in-the-menu.
As I said, I thought of using XML to define the complete app, and that may
well be a good idea in some other context, but it can only impact badly on
Hals' entire wireframes concept.
Perhaps what is needed is a little utility to take the COMPLETED wireframe
definition, and slurp it into your INITIAL fusebox-definition XML.
Perhaps...

I do like your idea about menus, though, or some form of navigation that
makes it easy to jump from place to place other than walking through the
workflow. Someone came up with the idea of splitting the .wir file into
several files to allow for more modular working. Still simple, just smaller.
