I believe you got it a bit wrong there. XML is THE WAY to describe anything, that is the current common popular belief and practiced successfully almost everywhere. View source of this page and bam, its XML. Even MS in drawn to create XAML.
What interesting about gtkdialog is - the ability to define actions to perform. Most XML dont have this or in limited style using CDATA.
gtkdialog takes the pain away from GTK using XML and I'm trying to take the pain away from XML using gmould. In future, your grandchild might have <make><coffee type=latte></coffee></make> button, and guess what it do ?
Of course, there are other way to describe things, but I think they introduce more complexity.
About GTK sucks, I cant comment, I dont code in it. I never code in GTK, not yet, even its just C. Why bother when you can use XML. Notice that I dont know GTK but still able to build gtk app ? Thats the power of XML.
I believe you can accept these stuff as a game challenge, its more fun that way.

Just because it`s popular doesn`t mean it`s better in any way.
Obtuse syntax and too much typing to describe the items.
xml and html just use more text to describe less data and control.
Example`s easier to read, understand, type, and is smaller.
Less typing means fewer errors, people make mistakes.
Easy to read and understand means quicker to find the errors.
Code: Select all
gui='title Example
list
var LIST
file /path/file
click script1
button
text Do Something
click script2
button
cancel'

Are you suggesting that a fixed indenting system would be the way to make clear what is going on.
BTW: Languages with default types and no need to explicitly define variables are the source of massive numbers of hard to find errors. They do require less typing but at least they don't lose space craft because of a mistyped "do".
My method of doing gtkdialog scripts is to make functions for the fragments and test them one by one and then combine fragments to make the whole GUI. It is easy to do and does not lead to errors. The only downside is that I have to do just a little more typing. The functions just echo to stdout.
The final mainline code looks a little like this:
Code: Select all
function MakeGUI() {
Fragment1
Fragment2
SomeButtons
}
DIA=$( MakeGUI )
gtkdialog3 -p DIA
Its all very easy to trouble shoot

Correct, its more typing, but its the most simplest of code I guess. IMO, XML lose only to direct variable assignment.
Code: Select all
<button>blue</button> vs
button=blue
....but then XML add more flexibility. Flexibility always come with complexity.
Code: Select all
<button align="right">
<text align="left" style="underline">blue</text>
</button>
Now how do you do that in your algo ? even with python style indentation its quite hard to explain I think.
Anyway, want gmould ? (my shameless promo)
It save you from typing
its still in dev but pretty usable now.

It`s just an example, there are as many ways to do things as the imagination can muster.
And it is easier on the eyes ( many claim otherwise...), and it`ll do anything xml will do.
Code: Select all
button
align right
text blue
text align left
text style underline
afifio; I don`t write apps much, a Filer is needed to replace Rox is my only use here.
If time permits I`ll look at it, I`m looking at RSH`s Modularity package at the moment.
Moose; Yes, my dynamic menu loops to make the buttons from lists or files.
Each loop creates code for a complete button. I wrote one in BaCon also.
But it needs to be compiled to work on different Puppies. Too much effort...
GtkDialog`s one saving grace, as only it needs compiling because it reads script.

A Filer is a file manager isn't it ?
How about xfe ? 3 pane filemanager, require fox toolkit, which is simply another file, the benefits is there are lots of fox program can be run too.
Another shameless plug!
gmould now available for download, will require about 5 minutes on 14.4kbps modem.
Requirements:
gtkdialog version 0.8.3 r473M or better
bash and its friends.
https://code.google.com/p/gmould/source ... uld.tar.gz 600kb
git clone

afifio; Rox is the only filer that recognizes AppDir or RoxApp type no-install packages.
### Problems with the GtkDialog list box.
Code looks good and the output is good also, but it errors:
** (gtkdialog:837): ERROR **: gtkdialog: Error in line 58, near token '<item>': syntax error
/root/0_sda3/AppPkg/tools/ubu_new-build/main-apps-deps.gtkdlg: line 33: 837 Trace/breakpoint trap gtkdialog --program=UBU_GU
Code: Select all
#!/bin/sh
P=`realpath $0`
cd ${P%/*}
List=$(<Ubuntu-Precise-Main_Apps-DB.lst)
Groups=`echo "$List" |sed 's,^.*/ , <item>,;s, |.*$,,;s,$,</item>,'`

echo -e "$UBU_GUI"

In curiousity, why you dont use the input file directive ? or treeview widget instead ?
Feeling bored so here the treeview snippet, might want to repair the input file, cause I dont know the path and whats in it. This was generated using gmould of course (another shameless plug LOL )
Code: Select all
<tree icon-name="system-software-update">
<variable>GROUP</variable>
<label>Packages</label>
'$Groups'
<width>200</width>
<height>100</height>
<input file>Ubuntu-Precise-Main_Apps-DB.lst</input>
<action>command:echo $GROUP</action>
</tree>
Anyway, I still dont understand the ROX thingy
. Using lxpup pcmanfm is good enough for me

Thanks afifio; A list was all that`s needed, but the tree ( grid ) may just be a better control.
I`ll give it a go starting with your code example.
The gui will have 3 "listboxes", 1 for each of Ubuntu`s package web pages.
1) App groups, 2) App packages, 3) App deps. And an EditBox for the App Description.
I`ve done this before, but GtkDialog keeps changing so it`s always a new learning experience.
Here`s one line from the Ubuntu Apps DB file.
Code: Select all
gnustep/ GNUstep | gnustep-dl2-postgresql-adaptor | gnustep-dl2-sqlite-adaptor | gorm.app | grr.app | systempreferences.app
Your line doesn`t need the redundant "cat". ( I read the whole file to a var. just once for reuse. )
Code: Select all
Groups=`awk '{print "<item>"$_"</item>"}' Ubuntu-Precise-Main_Apps-DB.lst`
### But as you can see in my post above, the output GtkDialog listbox code looks proper.

### How to get GtkDialog`s current font.?
I have a "text-size" utility I made from vovchik`s BaCon code to get screen size of text.
I need to get GtkDialog`s current working font, with Bash code hopefully.

GTK2_RC_FILES tells you what to parse to find the font settings
It usually comes from the theme that gets included. In the theme, the default font is usually the only one set.
This is helpful to set the font:
Code: Select all
#########################################################################
# I add to the GTK styles to control the style of some one the text
#
# Make the warnings come up red by setting up a style in Gtk that has
# the text as red
#
# For the display of data files, I want a mono spaced font
#########################################################################
echo 'style "specialwarning"
{ fg[NORMAL] = { 1.0, 0, 0 } }
widget "*warning" style "specialwarning"
class "GtkText*" style "specialwarning"
style "specialmono"
{ font = "mono 12" }
widget "*mono" style "specialmono"
class "GtkText*" style "specialmono"' > /tmp/gtkrc_fft
# This is where GTK looks
GTK2_RC_FILES=/tmp/gtkrc_fft:/root/.gtkrc-2.0
Use like this
Code: Select all
echo "<text name="mono" xalign="0" use-markup="true">"

Thanks Moose; Looking at it...
Puppy has no: /tmp/gtkrc_fft
And: /root/.gtkrc-2.0 is an empty file.

Is it possible in a combobox when selecting an <item> to have a different action than reading the exact word written inside? For example: when selecting <item>hello</item>, the script will actually read/use <item>hello</item>. But i want to select <item>Greek</item> and use on the final output "el", not "Greek". I want to do that so i can change the ugly language shortcut code (eg "el) with the whole word (Greek) but on the final output it must be used the shortcut (el) for the command to work properly... I hope you understood what i mean, my English are not too good... :/

When I wrote the gettext version of Baconrecorder
I believe I wrote the combobox items with gettext translations.
You can open the script up and see.
Wave
MP3 stereo
MP3 Mono
or 'case' command could convert

Puppy has no: /tmp/gtkrc_fft
Look more closely. My script wrote that file.
/tmp/gtkrc_fft is what I added to make red and mono type
And: /root/.gtkrc-2.0 is an empty file.
It must be you didn't set a theme or something mine looks like this.
Code: Select all
# -- THEME AUTO-WRITTEN DO NOT EDIT
include "/usr/share/themes/Stardust/gtk-2.0/gtkrc"
style "user-font" {
font_name = "Sans 12"
}
include "/root/.gtkrc.mine"
# -- THEME AUTO-WRITTEN DO NOT EDIT
You may have to use find to find the one that is used on your version of puppy. I am on puppy 5.2.8.006 right now.

For example: when selecting <item>hello</item>, the script will actually read/use <item>hello</item>. But i want to select <item>Greek</item> and use on the final output "el", not "Greek". I want to do that so i can change the ugly language shortcut code (eg "el) with the whole word (Greek) but on the final output it must be used the shortcut (el) for the command to work properly... I hope you understood what i mean, my English are not too good... :/
A method I've used is to use string operations in bash to change the string from what is returned into what I want it to be.
It means you need to do one line per country but that is not too bad because you sort of need to do that anyway when you make the list of countries and codes.

Yeah, Ive never set a theme on this Puppy. Not too concerned with that usually.
Changing the objects is beyond themes, I need new widgets and window decorations.

Can you show me a piece of the updated code to understand it? How should it look with the "string" parameter?

Hi koulaxizis; Bash does built-in string manipulation.
Code: Select all
STRING=12345abcde
echo ${STRING/a*/6789} ### This outputs: 123456789
echo $STRING:0:4} ### This outputs: 12345
echo $STRING: -4} ### This outputs: bcde
echo $STRING##*3} ### This outputs: 45abcde
P=/1/2/3/F.ext
echo $P##*/} ### This outputs: F.ext
echo $P#*/} ### This outputs: 1/2/3/F.ext
echo $P##*.} ### This outputs: ext
echo $P%/*} ### This outputs: /1/2/3
echo $P%.*} ### This outputs: /1/2/3/F
# Is starting at the first character.
% Is starting at the last character.
### Ask if you have any more Qs... Always glad to help a friend.! Terry B.
