Guikachu 1.3.7
Dear users of both large and small computing tools,
A new development release of Guikachu is available.
About Guikachu
Guikachu is a GNOME application for graphical editing of resource
files for PalmOS-based pocket computers. The user interface is
modelled after Glade, the GNOME UI builder.
Catch it all from http://cactus.rulez.org/projects/guikachu/
Features
- Uses GNOME-VFS, you can load files from anywhere, e.g. from the
Web, from an SMB share, from a tarball. - Exporting to PilRC .rcp files
- Support for non-Palm PilRC targets (like the eBookMan)
- Support for the following PalmOS resource types:
- String and string list resources
- Dialog resources
- Menu resources
- Form resources
- Bitmap resources
- Per-application resources (e.g. version number)
- WYSIWYG Form Editor, with drag & drop capability and visual
resizing - Flexible, complete undo support
- Sample file with sample GNU PalmOS SDK-based application
- Documentation (a complete user’s manual)
About these releases
This release is part of the 1.3 development branch, so it’s all
about crazy experimentations and not about providing a polished,
well-tested product — so don’t quite replace your 1.2 Guikachu
just yet.
New in this version:
- Text positioning fixes
- Support for graphical buttons and other widgets
- Now you can use the same ID for different widgets if they are
in different Forms - New (Czech) and updated translations
- Documentation updates
Guikachu uses GTKmm and GNOMEmm for its user interface. I/O is
implemented via GNOME-VFS, the XML storage format is managed with
the libxml package. Dialog windows are loaded via libglade. GConf
is used to store user preferences. You will need the versions of
these packages available in the GNOME 1.4 bundle (with the
exception of GNOMEmm which you will need to upgrade to the recently
released version 1.2.4). The ImageMagick library is used for
managing bitmap resources. To actually create the PalmOS resource
files, you will also need PilRC (part of the GNU PalmOS SDK) to
compile the .rpc files produced by Guikachu.
Beware of bugemons!
