All,
I'd like to collect some ideas on how to manage the
plex86.conf script file and the dynamically loaded
user modules. I'm going to modify things
a bit so that you first call something like:
load-module "xyz.so"
The module registers a number of command names, which
from that point on, are valid in the script file. Then
plex86 will pass args to that command to the function
requested in the module. This is no big deal.
As options become more numerous and complex, and we
want more function in the script file (variables, functions,
objects, etc) we will run up against limits of our
own custom script file parsing. So for this, we
might think about using an existing script file
tool kit. Any ideas on this? We would need something
that works across all x86 platforms that plex86
could be ported to.
I've seen some Python script code which made it look
very suitable for plex86 also.
Opinions?
