Apps :: DSL PanelI



Halo

I'm trying to make similar application to DSL Panel. There is button, and then execute application. Could someone tell me, how to make DSL Panel?

Previously, I tried tor made with Tcl/Tk. Unfortunately, within default condition, isn't available on DSL. I've tried also with Perl Gtk2.

Thanks!

The DSL panel is made with Lua. I cannot help with that though..
You could try looking at /usr/sbin/cpanel.lua
check here:
http://www.murga-projects.com/murgaLua/index.html
and here:
http://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/

You might want to look at the over 50 examples of lua and lua/fltk programs already in DSL. Use the find tool and look for *.lua

The murgaLua site is usually using a newer version of their software so it may or may not work. Or hopefully will be backward compatible.

FYI
Actually, I am concerned with the direction of that project, as they seem to be loading in more and more. What is typically is a module choice is no longer such and murgaLua is becoming like AIOLua.

The latest version seems to run much more slowly on my old boxes. Of course, I could not expect that project to not accomodate their user base wanting an all-in-one gui language system.

This is in no way a negative but only another realization of how most software progresses. DSL is always faced with larger software packages and thus the need for larger or more powerful hardware on which to run it.

Most of the lua/fltk in DSL was written before murgaLua project started.
