[Opengc-devel] December status report

[Damion S. <dam...@ho...>]

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to provide a quick status report. Classes and final exams have 
consumed most of my free time since mid November, but I'm clear of them and 
should be able to get back into OpenGC development. My new Powerbook finally 
arrived, so I hope to get a Mac build working over the holidays. I have 
successfully compiled CMake and FLTK, and I'm optimistic that the remainder 
of the port will proceed relatively smoothly.

In the near term (end of January) I hope to make the following changes:

1) More complete conversion to FLTK. OpenGC currently uses FLTK in Glut 
emulation mode, and I would like to switch to "native" FLTK.

2) Nav display development seems to have stalled - this is the remaining 
thing to add to have a reasonably feature complete 1.0 version.

One area I'd like some feedback on is the possibility of a more complicated 
GUI using FLTK. For example, there could be a frontend for the opengc.ini 
file that uses checkboxes, dialogs, etc. Is there any interest in this? 
Another possibility would be "drag and drop" style gauge placement...

Cheers,
-Damion-
