Pipeglade is a helper program that displays graphical user interfaces
|
||
|
|
for other programs. It renders the GUI definition found in a
|
||
|
|
GtkBuilder file (created using the Glade Interface Designer), and
|
||
|
|
communicates with the main program solely via pipes or fifos.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To have its GUI rendered by pipeglade, a program must be able to
|
||
|
|
- send plain text commands to standard output or a named pipe and/or
|
||
|
|
- receive and parse simple plain text messages from standard input or
|
||
|
|
a named pipe.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Simple one-shot dialogs as well as more complex, long-running programs
|
||
|
|
can be built.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Pipeglade provides access to a subset of the features available in
|
||
|
|
GTK+ 3. Widgets able to communicate via pipeglade include text labels
|
||
|
|
and images, statusbars and progress indicators, various kinds of
|
||
|
|
buttons, spinbuttons and scales/sliders, comboboxes and menus, various
|
||
|
|
text and tabular inputs, various standard dialog windows, calendars,
|
||
|
|
drawing areas.
