swt - simple widget toolkit

Installation

Edit config.mk to match your local setup. swt is installed into
/usr/local by default.

Afterwards enter the following command to build and install swt
(if necessary as root):

make install 

Running swt

Simply invoke

swt -i <inputfile> -o <outputfile>

you can interact with swt using both of those files and the commads below.
The intention is that the gui is driven by potentially any language.

Commands

BNF:

<commands> ::= <command> { ";" <command> }  
<command>  ::= <window>  | <add> | <show> | <dump> | <quit>  
<hwindow>   ::= window <sp> <name> <title>  
	returns "window <name> <xid>"  
<hwindow>   ::= hwindow <sp> <name> <title>  
<vwindow>   ::= vwindow <sp> <name> <title>  
<show>     ::= show <sp> <name> | show all  
<dump>     ::= dump <sp> all | dump <sp> <name>  
<quit>     ::= quit  
<add>      ::= add <sp> <parent> <sp> <widget>  
<parent>   ::= <name>  
<widget>   ::= <text> | <embed>  
<text>     ::= text <sp> <name> <sp> <widget-attributes>  
<embed>    ::= embed <sp> <xid>  
...
<name>     ::= <alpha-num>  
<xid>      ::= <unsignedlong>  
<alpha-num>::= <letter> | <digit> { <letter> | <digit> }  
<sp>       ::= " "  

Customizations

(cp config.def.h config.h || make) && $EDITOR config.h && make;

Like most simple projects swt doesn't provide some fancy interface
to theme the widget toolkit. The best interface for that is your
favorite text editor pointed at config.h; and recompile...

Tests

They're not really tests just scripts that go through some common use cases currently tests will require xdotool to automate X events

• window.sh is a crude attempt at creating windows and quiting
