txt2image uses gtkdialog

#1 Post by big_bass »

text to image

in another thread I asked about converting an app to output a png image
and then though why not just do it and with a GUI
so became this and this is aiming for more full features as I go


I always wanted some type of front end for imagemagick so this is my first go at it

its still version 1 it does jpg, png, gif so far
but there are a lot of people who like to see things before more options are added in

and in gtkdialog where there is a lot of buzz lately

I usually stick to Xdialog but gtkdialog looked like a fun challenge
I coded this in just a few hours today so feel free add some good stuff to it so it gets better

if you dont have imagemagick I compiled the latest
http://www.puppy2.org/slaxer/imagemagic ... i486-1.tgz

only if you plan to compile apps that depend on imagemagick

Did you see Plogo (by Vovchik IIRC)?
Do you know a good gtkdialog program? Please post a link here

thanks for the tip I missed that one by my friend Vovchick
will try it today (I dont know how I missed that one )

anyway the objective I have here is imagmagick has so much power it needs many GUI widgets to take advantage of its options

and I hope this simple gtkdialog gets people started making more small
widgets using imagmagick

be it gtkdialog ,Xdialog or BaCon
Bacon code does look like a faster code base
and I do want to code some small widgets in it too


I thought about using imagmagick "magic"
it is really a coders app to get started on
since puppy fonts dont get seen by the program
as defualt none of the examples work as seen on the website
turning people away from a great app

and there are alot of artist here at puppy that are missing out
of imagmagicks power

thanks


Joe
