[REBOL] Re: VID Extension Kit
Hi Henrik, Thanks for all the information. Gerard 2009/8/30 Henrik Mikael Kristensen henri...@gmail.com ...it could be a rich add-on towards a complete intelligent IDE and/or dev framework. It's the most interesting thing I saw since RebGui and the Vive-REBOL project to help better support and then promote the use of REBOL itself f= or more =A0advanced GUI dev... The four primary things the formatter does is manipulate the text, the highlight, the caret and the data part of the face. I hadn't thought of using formatters like that, but it's possible. To write your own, you need to visit the vid-ctx-format.r file in the source (link below). I'll keep you in touch when I will be ready to work with this concept. Thanks. I can help you to test it and report (in the format you want - li= ke in codecure for example) what has to be reworked if you need to. I've uploaded the whole thing to code.google.com, where there is a bug tracker. Like this release, it's quick and dirty, so I'll just be using that for now instead of Curecode. The project can be found here: http://code.google.com/p/vid-ext-kit/ I saw the newest posts in the thread about bad performance of code.google and Curecode So my delay is welcome - I'll wait a bit...more ! However, before downloading any code for commercial use, I need to revisit the licenses. Some files are grabbed from Carl's source directly and the license may not fit. OK I agree. And for the moment I don't plan to work on any commercial product anyway. But this may be of interest to other developers. I have some bugs listed, but it would be simpler for me, if you just start reporting. Then I can weed out what I already know in the bug tracker at the click of a button, rather than communicating I already know that back and forth in mails. :-) Yes I know about this process ... and everything else is welcome ! When you are ready let me know. Ready now! I'll only be able to start in a few days from now- may be less than a week. Some VERY urgent FULL-TIME work to finish before. Delivery of my first magazine production, as a new editor, arrives shortly... But it has nothing to do with computers or programming. It's entirely dedicated to ice-rinks managers. WE try to save the planet, eliminating the freon R-22 and other HCFC nocive gas !!! -- To unsubscribe from the list, just send an email to lists at rebol.com with unsubscribe as the subject.

Hello Henrik, Saturday, August 29, 2009, 3:17:57 PM, you wrote: This will be quick and dirty: The VID Extension Kit for R2: This is a library that overhauls VID and the styles to improve the experience in using it and creating bigger programs with it. This is very much a work in progress, but if I continue to keep it under wraps, I'll never get it out. :-) Quick feature list: - Full tab navigation - Field validation and autoformatting - Full resizing - Many new flags - Much better face control: disabling/enabling faces, different setting and getting of panels, complex face navigation - Many new styles: Selectors, balancers, lists, fields, panels, scrollers, iterators - Many VID bugs are fixed, although the impossible ones still remain - Many new VID bugs are introduced as well :-) Some styles are not working. Try it out at: http://www.hmkdesign.dk/rebol/vid/src/vid-ext-kit.r A simple style browser is available at: http://www.hmkdesign.dk/rebol/vid/tools/style-browser.r Very preliminary docs at: http://www.hmkdesign.dk/rebol/vid/docs/vid-extension-kit.html I'll release the full sources later, but have a look and see what you think. Remember to ask questions. -- Regards, Henrik Mikael Kristensen very nice Henrik. do many people use it today ?, or are most people on the net still advocating and writing Python or indeed anything But rebol for their and the majority of average peoples GUI video related scripting needs today! its a shame no one capable or willing so far was to take the likes the complimentary Video related (see most non rebol people see 'VID' and assume video related API options) display wrappers like The Old Kaa Media python modules Repository and translate it, or refactor it for the rebol modules use. i was even surprised the other day when it turns out GUI creators are still using the old Amiga Gui4Cli interpreter and its scripts ported to windows for their GUI Encoder needs today rather than Rebol View, and they have a large user base using that GUI to multi cross platform Encoders app today. http://doc.freevo.org/2.0/Kaa The Kaa Media Repository is a set of python modules related to media. Kaa modules are based on parts from Freevo and modules created for MeBox. Kaa exists to encourage code sharing between these projects, and to serve as an umbrella for several previously disparate media-related modules in order to make them available from one (unique) namespace. Kaa provides a base module that implements the common features needed for application development, such as mainloop management, timers, signals, callbacks, file descriptor monitors, etc. Kaa's other modules provide specific media-related functionality, such as retrieving metadata on arbitrary media files (kaa.metadata, previously called mmpython), Python wrappers for Imlib2, Xine, and Evas, and many other high level APIs for easily creating applications that deal with video and audio. Kaa is named after the python character in the Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling. -- Best regards, davidmailto:david.ma...@ntlworld.com -- To unsubscribe from the list, just send an email to lists at rebol.com with unsubscribe as the subject.

* david may david.ma...@ntlworld.com [090829 13:14]: do many people use it today ?, or are most people on the net still advocating and writing Python or indeed anything But rebol for their and the majority of average peoples GUI video related scripting needs today! I prefer rebol for much of what I do - but read on: Not meant to be an argument but a statement of policy. My company's mission statement is about open source. Based on the more proprietory nature of the vid dialect, I have never used rebol/view. in the 10 years that I have been programming in rebol. Just rebol/core. My partner and I have agreed that we will use open source libraries for GUI applications. Therefore, it is in our agreement that he (primarily a perl programmer) and I (rebol, python, newlisp, javascript) will use (as an example TKinter). And we've done precious little of that since we have found (for our work) that html and javascript and CGI can do what we need to do for our customers, in terms of interfaces. I have no argument with the rebol components that are closed source. That is Carl Sassenrath's Business plan :) and that's his business. But my business is with Open Source as much as is possible. I can recall some pretty spirited ( :) but never mean-spirited) exchanges on the topic of Open Source here on this ML. I'm just happy to have rebol for the uses that I put it to. It is a thing of beauty. regards. -- Tim t...@johnsons-web.com http://www.akwebsoft.com -- To unsubscribe from the list, just send an email to lists at rebol.com with unsubscribe as the subject.
