What the developers are doing
In the past week I split the old WRITETO
request in two: WRITECMD
and WRITEDATA
. This may not sound like a very important thing, but WRITECMD
is a step to make the communication between client and widget more object-oriented; not yet 2.0, but a progress :-)
The canvas widget was already able to receive commands (via 'WRITETO'; after this change, it uses WRITECMD
instead); now I gave this ability to the textbox too, which is one of the items in the 1.0 TODO list and is being used by my testbed application, the "nifty" python-based text editor (in cvs: apps/nifty).
In the next few days I plan to dedicate my PicoGUI time to the textbox (and nifty), while Micah says he wants to put some work on the terminal.
