Hello: There are avaliable latex sources for ltkdoc. I'd like to add some content to It. Should I write an independent doc and send It to you? Thanks. -- Felip Alàez Nadal

[ltk-user] LTK improvements
by Jan Rychter 28 Nov '06

28 Nov '06

I have a fairly large bunch of changes to ltk, mostly having to do with the text widget, but also with support for new widgets from the BWidget toolkit (such as tree). I am not completely happy with these changes, as I am sure they require further work and/or review. They can likely be implemented much better. But since I haven't found the time to do so over the last 2 months, I thought I'd rather push them out, to prevent wasting of time in case somebody is doing the same thing in parallel. Should I send the diffs to the list, or directly to Peter? Please note, they definitely do require reviewing. --J.

[ltk-user] ltk examples

Thanks Ken, I know, documenting all features of ltk is an awful lot of work, but maybe if it is divided into pieces and done by several people it is manageable with not too much effort. And, as you probably know, Peter is German (as I am, too) and Germans opt for perfection ;-) By the way, I have meanwhile been able to solve the problem myself, as I found a bigger piece of code that is written using ltk (clmail : http://hocwp.free.fr/glmf/article_clmail/clmail-v2/) and by analyzing this I was able to use the already implemented function "scrolled- text". So Peter has obviously already implemeted it. As looking at software that is already utilizing ltk is the best way to find out how to use it, do other members of the list know of more examples like clmail ? Maybe another "rather unspecific" question, but if we get together enough pieces of code (maybe even from each other) this would be the best way to help each other not to "reinvent the wheel") Greetings, Bernhard Graf Bernhard Graf Geschäftsführer adARTIS e.K.

[ltk-user] ltk examples
by Bernhard Graf 17 Nov '06

Hi everybody, I am quite new to LISP and found ltk as an ideal graphical UI for my LISP tests. What I am missing are more examples for the ltk functions. To get used to ltk, LISP and TK, I am trying to convert the examples found at http://www.bin-co.com/tcl/tutorial/tk.php to LISP. Unfortunately, I miss a lot of infos and would be grateful if Peter Herth or someone else would include small examples of each ltk function, similar to the TK examples in the tutorial mentioned above, to the ltk manual. What I am missing at the moment is e.g. the link between the text function and the scrollbar function. This seems to be somewhat different between TK and ltk, or am I wrong ? Greetings, Bernhard Graf

[ltk-user] selected text
by Phil Armitage 15 Nov '06

Hi, I'm starting to use LTK but there's one feature I need and have been unable to find. Essentially I want to be able to retrieve the selected text in a text widget. I searched through the docs and source but couldn't find anything (I apologize if I've missed it). I'm very new to Lisp (and Tk!) but I managed to write this: (defmethod selected ((text text)) (format-wish "senddatastring [~a get sel.first sel.last]" (widget-path text)) (read-data)) ...which works but causes problems if no text is selected. Is there an obvious way around this (or, even better, an existing function to do the job that I've just missed)? Many thanks in advance for any help you can offer (and thanks to Peter for writing the library!). Phil
