[Vexi-chat] Vexitris Video

[Charles G. <ch...@we...>]

I started a basic tetris project.

Here's a video of a drop effect test:

It's very early on, but in the unlikely event this appeals to somebody:

[Vexi-chat] Annoyed with capitalized text? =)

[Charles G. <ch...@we...>]

Well the solution is attached!

Copy horrible capitalized text into the top textarea, hit 'convert'
and collect sanitized text in the lower textarea.

(Nice simple example for Vexi!)

[Vexi-chat] Vexi Games forum

[Charles G. <ch...@we...>]

I created a section for Vexi games on the FreeGameDev forums:
http://forum.freegamedev.net/index.php?t=thread&frm_id=30

Highlight is the first release of "Footy Wiz" - a Sensible Soccer like
arcade football game.  Of course, it's only version 0.0.1 so don't
expect too much. ;-)

[Charles G. <ch...@we...>]

Qudobup,

Thank you for the insight into the ambiguities of the description.

I shall try and come up with something a bit better then, if you don't
mind, get your feedback on that. :-)

Btw I'm the same Charlie as the one working on Fortress - and this was
definitely the right place to post this message.  Thanks for making
the effort to do so.

PS. I added you on Google Talk if you use that.  And I also sent this
mail directly to you as well as the list as you are not subscribed.

[Vexi-chat] 'About' on home page

[Iwan G. <qu...@go...>]

Hi, I wanted to mention, that you could & should improve the
introduction:

"Vexi is a platform for creating and publishing Graphical User
Interfaces that can be used over the Internet or an intranet. It
features a very simple and powerful syntax based on xml and javascript,
a set of complete, extensible, themable widgets, and a sandbox-like
security model to protect users."

Do you mean by 'platform' 'language'? 'A platform' appears to be an
unspecific term to me.

What does 'publishing a gui' mean? Replacing 'internet or an intranet'
by 'network' would make sense, since inter-/intranet are just specific
forms of networks. (I am wrong?)

All my criticism may build on my complete non-knowledge of
gui-tools/languages, but I am sure that in general the text
(Overview/Why Vexi?) has a feeling of being too self-flattering (which
is ok) and not being straight to the point (which is not ok).

Seeya, qubodup

PS: I'm posting here because the fortress project uses vexi for it's gui
(http://freegamer.freeforums.org/viewtopic.php?)
