Hi all, I have looked a many apps lately, and decided to make a full featured text editor I would just make one, because most of them are simply based on the FLTK text editor tutorial.
Things that work: loading files, editing/copy/paste/search/replace/undo It has a tabbed interface, because that is important for small screens. Things that need work: resizing the app doesn't instantly resize the actual editing portion of the program (it is nested in tabs and groups, so setting everything to resizable had no effect.. though I have a hacky workaround for a window handler function in mind) Syntax highlighting... this is a bit complicated since the text editor does not store the syntax highlighting. It is an additional text buffer that I have not fully figured out a great way of creating and keeping track of... AFAIK there is no way to retrieve the highlighting data, though I have asked on the FLTK group for insight. Other things that work, and I may have already mentioned in an earlier e-mail. the about us dialog (works great!) the power-management dialogs (work fine too, though they use system() calls rather than building a systemd/dbus interface) the run dialog the askpass dialog the battery and volume indicators so only a few MAJOR things left for our end of things, and then we need to look into the GTK programs we include that we could replace Thanks for your patience, programming is quite fun! -- Regards -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~torios-dev Post to : torios-dev@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~torios-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
