Whatever box

[nkh]

Box that contains data that asciio doesn't know how to handle, ex:

• wiki
• image
• markdown
• latex
• ...

the box as user defined

• attributes
• size
• possible connector definitions
• text rendering

rendering of box is left to external command

• send attributes
• Asciio font
• ...

• provide external command to render "Asciio" style

We need to make it possible to edit the attributes

• simple text editor
• external command
• inline but that needs a plugin system
  • simple if the plugin is written in Perl

Exporting to ASCII, SVG, ... need to be supported by the plugin, or the box text is used.

@qindapao the system above may be a good framework for the Markdown you use for the wiki.

I think this is easy to implement, then some refactoring for the Markdown code, this should eliminate the special cases.

@nkh Ok,I will study it.As you said.

Besides, zbuffer, I'm almost finished. I'll give you a code review tomorrow night or weekend.

I admire your architectural design ability very much.

[qindapao]

@nkh I have to learn more about design patterns.

My design abilities I've learned when I was an architect, the trick is not to think that one knows what architecture is and listen to the people having the problems and help them put their modules together.
