Dear users of both large and small computing tools,
A new release of Guikachu is available.
About Guikachu
--------------
Guikachu is a GNOME application for graphical editing of resource
files for PalmOS-based pocket computers. The user interface is
modelled after Glade, the GNOME UI builder.
Catch it all from http://cactus.rulez.org/projects/guikachu/
Features
--------
* Exporting to PilRC .rcp files (compile with pilrc -H)
* String resources
* Dialog resources
* Menu resources
* Form resources
* Per-application resources (e.g. version number, icon)
* Form editor (with support for every widget but Table and Gadget)
with graphical drag & drop capability to make designing forms more
easier and faster
* Native font support in the form editor for more precise
preview
* XSLT style sheets to generate RCP files from Guikachu
documents
About this release
------------------
Both small UI improvements, the new Text Field widget, and internal
fixes are included in this new release, that hopefully brings Guikachu
back on the track of frequent releases.
New features:
* New supported widget: Text fields
* Played around with some widget renderers, so they are
closer (in some cases, 100% close) to the real PalmOS
displays
* Widget icons are now displayed in the form editor's widget
tree, and its selection is synchronized with the preview's
selection
* The selected widget in the form editor is indicated by a
bounding box
* Sticky palette selection: hold Control while clicking on a
palette button to make it pressed until another palette
button is selected
* Texts are properly clipped for undersized widgets
* guikachu2rcp safety fixes
* The wonderful Guikachu icon is now displayed in the launcher
icons
Guikachu uses GTK-- and GNOME-- for its user interface. File I/O is
implemented with the libxml package. Dialog windows are loaded via
libglade. You will need the versions of these packages available in
the GNOME 1.4 bundle (with the exception of GNOME-- which you will
need to upgrade to version 1.2.0)
To actually create the PalmOS resource files, you will also need PilRC
(part of the GNU PalmOS SDK) to compile the .rpc files produced by
Guikachu.
Beware of bugémons!
