I'm beginning to believe that casefiles should not be used for
GUI access. Instead, we should create a new, more dynamic
structure for GUI access, one that supports the casefile
operations. For convenience, I'll call it a "flexfile", because
it's flexible. The GUI would use flexfiles where the TUI uses
casefiles. I'd write a wrapper that allowed them to be used
interchangeably.Yes. It seems that something like this is going to be necessary. I've now been reminded that it's not possible to mutate an existing value in a case in a casefile. I knew that integrating the casefiles wasn't going to be easy, but it turning out to be more difficult than I'd imagined.
