GUBI changes




hi folks,

i've put up a code shot of GUBI to
ftp://ftp.softhome.net/pub/users/timj/gubi/devel/.

this version (gubi-970920.tar.gz) is not considered very stable
and i'm still having some problems with the latest gtk+ release.
this version will only work if you apply gtk-timj-970919-0.patch.gz
to gtk+970916.tar.gz, something you should do anyways...

the signal editor is only usable if you manualy resize the window,
and for some reason the default buttons don't work anymore...

be warned: this release is for sucidal bleeding-edge testers only!

so why did i put up the version then?

i'm going to include some generic scanner code which will be used in the
outputted source to parse a menurc, and it will be used to parse *.gbc
files (replacing flex!).
also i'm going to totaly rework the source building part to lay out the
basic frame work for multiple language support (one of the most requested
features).
this might take a while and i didn't want to leave all of you brave testers
hanging for so long...

now something more positive and interesting -

changes:

-	bug fixes ;)
-	validity check for symbol names
-	full support of GB_WIDGET_DIALOG through own linkage
-	new widgets: GB_WIDGET_PIXMAP, GB_WIDGET_ASPECT_FRAME,
	GB_WIDGET_?_PANED and all that fancy menu widgets.


reminder: ;)
6 step list to build an application:

1)	start gubi ;)
2)	click on [Trees]"Read"
3)	read in ./gbc/hello_world.gbc (with e.g. double click)
4)	click on [Trees]"Build C source"
5)	click on "Build" to build the c source in ./test_src
6)	cd into ./test_src and type `make && main' and
	you should see a nice "hello world" greeting!

as ever, i'm curious to hear your comments on this version.

you can get GUBI from
ftp://ftp.softhome.net/pub/users/timj/gubi/devel
or via it's web page
http://www.softhome.net/pub/users/timj/gubi/.

please remeber that you need gtk+970916.tar.gz + gtk-timj-970919-0.patch.gz,
both of which you can grab from
ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gtk/
and
ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gtk/patches/
respectively!

hope you will enjoy testing it just like i enjoyed programming it ;))
