Create a nice reaction GUI #6

Closed khval closed 1 year ago

khval commented 1 year ago

Recreating the GUI, is the easiest path, as a lot event loop is already written, we have the .cd file etc.

khval commented 1 year ago

NallePUH.res file gives some hints, how to design the GUI as it was. NallePUH.h (contains the GUI defines) this file should be generated. NallePUH.cd should be moved under a sub directory. (see Basilisk)

I think NallePUHstr.s gives some hints too why the gui was not made for PPC.

GUI uses lots of WriteLong/WriteWord, we should replace that.

In NallePUH.res what is REDC?

I wonder how this file was built? It looks like a layout text file. Possibly this could be built from the components of the resource.library that didn't make it into OS4. I recall the resource.library was useful for building a GUI in OS3.5+. Unfortunately such a generically named.. err... OS resource was also confusing, since the OS had resources and it perhaps wasn't the best play on words. :-)

Also NallePUHstr.s is built by CatComp. A sign of the times it's in 68K ASM. Most of it is fine as it's just creating a binary file, similar to how a font was constructed, which was common. Problem is the ASM snippet on the end though it is small.

Could be ported to PPC ASM or C but then how is the binary integrated?

Obviously what's needed is what file is given to CatComp to build the locale, an OS4 native CatComp or newer replacement.

NallePUH.res reminds me of some macos binary gui, thing.

but then how is the binary integrated?

I think it was simply linked in.

Easier to simply recreate the GUI part, some of the stuff does make sense anyway.

It looks auto generated but useful,

Strange way to include a static structure.

Or use CatComp again to produce a normal file like portable C source.

I do use CatComp to generate .h and .c files, but this are only for the translation, not the GUI elements.

The thing missing is iconify, needs a bit of fixing, maybe the gui can need some redesign, feel free to change it.

It’s like 10 hours difference between Australia and Norway, it's almost impossible to get an merge conflict ;-)

I have redesigned the GUI, (too many buttons)..
