GUI for atomic name trading #155

Open JeremyRand opened 10 years ago

JeremyRand commented 10 years ago

Create a GUI for atomic name trading.

Exact design choices (language, libraries, etc.) should be discussed in this issue thread before bounties are placed or coding is started.

This issue does not include a public listing of trade offers. That will be a separate issue.

It is not an automatic requirement that the solution be a part of Namecoin-Qt; standalone applications may be acceptable if discussed here.

In my opinion, a PyQt wrapper around Phelix's ANTPY script ( https://github.com/phelixnmc/antpy ) would be the best method of accomplishing this. Thoughts?

It might be easier to use the Python integrated GUI, TKinter. I could do it, and want to but could not find the time yet. ::) It would do exactly the same thing as ANTPY but seeing is believing I guess.

I looked at this recently and I don't think a GUI will make it any easier to use than a console wizard. What about including the console wizards into NMControl and making the offer/accept wizards available via the systray icon? @JeremyRand By "including" I mean as a plugin ;)
