World: r3wp

Last year on first dev Con I present RADIS an intent of IDE for REBOL 
but since this intent the project was abandonned ...

the output code mayde by  RADIS was ugly ... but the idea is good 
until we don't have a big team dadicated to build this kind of evy 
integrated tool I think spending times on it is not usefull :)

script-size - Carls layout.r does a good job with generating sourcecode 
IMHO.

IMHO good looking sourcecode is very important. something which can 
be changed in text-form too.

What I am thinking of for an IDE starts very simple:

IDE for REBOL must be open for example in the Layout designer I want 
to be able to choose betwin comon Vid or a sub widget library like 
RebGUI for example ;)

1) code text editor with the usual features (like list of modules 
to click on)

file -> module?

2) trace/step thru code and see it in editor (important to non-REBOLers 
who are considering REBOL)

3) Breakpoints, watchpoints, etc.

in REBOL we can have 3 levels Files, Context and function ;)

Your jobs :)

4) Add a few other tools like layout, etc. But not make it complicated.

File <> module, but it can in many cases.

tracing would need backlinks to sourcecode? or just work on molded 
code?

Oh no! What is this conversation doing in AGG group!?

We sure ruin the group system, don't we?

the IDE will interger a AGG draw editor lol ;)

off topic question - in Rebol you have contexts in which words are 
hidden.  In forth you have vocabularies in which you define your 
lexicons.  But in forth it is much easier to switch to using a different 
vocabulary by changing the current vocabulary.  In Rebol you have 
to specify the context to use a word from within that context.  Would 
it make sense to implement such a feature in Rebol?

If you seek for a link betwin this conversation and this group topic 
 ;)

we don't have an IDE or View Editor group...

Oops. you said change group, so i followed the next group going red 
*blush*

Same for me  ...

Graham: that's what REBOL Modules would do.  Modules each keep separate 
symbol tables (not just context tables).

Rebol modules ??

http://www.rebol.net/article/0144.html

so are rebol modules reconsidered?

So, modules would be like forth vocabularies ?

Not exactly.

Forth vocabularies are heaps of word definitions (code and data).

I meant in use.

It has been too long since I used Forth to know precisely!

Would you be able to switch easily from working with one module to 
another?

we should move out of this group!

to me it sounds comparable. a "search-order" root system user etc. 
and modules can be extended after creation.

but here is more control about what you use from other modules. if 
you search "forth" in big systems, thats 1k words. here we can say 
"want only drop dup swap".

moving out - too late.. ;) new group?

rename this group :)

Future Directions

Back to AGG ... "add a move to the end to keep the shape open" ... 
thanks Gabriele, that solves the problem nicely.

I'm actually working on svg-demo.r code in order to extend it translation 
support

so actually I'm working on <G></G> block  and I yet support in <g> 
block path definition but I need to be able to support the transform 
matrix how can i do this in DRAW AGG ?

shadwolf: there's the 'matrix command for 2x3 matrix in draw/AGG 
: the syntax is
  matrix [a b c d e f]
where the equivalent 3x3 matrix is:
  | a c e |
  | b d f |
  | 0 0 1 |

if I'm correct , "matrix(2.082761,0.529757,-0.491943,1.944909,4.543758,-12.39301)" 
translates to
matrix [2.082761 0.529757 -0.491943 1.944909 4.543758 -12.39301]

exactly

done bu t I still have jaggies ...

and my ftp account is out of line ...

but I'm near the solution ;)

then I need to suport gradientLinear

see new group SVG RENDERER for my actual source code ;)
