OpenG Toolkit 2.0

[Jim K. <ji...@ji...>]

Hello All,

I have just released several openg toolkit packages as version 2.0.  You =
can
download them all in the "all_packages" package =
(all_packages-2.0.ogp.zip)
or individually.  Note that the new "Dynamic Palette View"
(ogrsc_dynamicpalette-0.2-1.ogp) package is currently only supporting =
LV7.0
win/linux.  I will be working to get 6.0 and 6.1 supported, and on all
platforms.  Also note that the OpenG Package Installer (v0.9) =
automatically
installs the "palette" package (which creates an "OpenG" custom palette
view).  This package/palette is no longer used.

OpenG Toolkit VIs are now installed at...

./user.lib/_OpenG.lib/<package>

This solves several problems.  Also, the Dynamic Palette View's
palette-synched folders are located at...

./user.lib/_dynamicpalette_dirs/<mnufilename>

There is a text file at...

./user.lib/_dynamicpalette_dirs/menu_to_dir_map.txt

...which tells which folders map to which directories.  Essentially the
directories are named after the mnu file that they are synch'ed to.  The
OpenG Toolkit does not install VIs in these folders, only .mnu files =
that
point to VIs beneath...

./user.lib/_OpenG.lib/

However, users are encouraged to put their own VIs inside of dynamic =
palette
view folders instead of editing the palettes.  This is the reason that =
the
dynamicpalette_dirs folder is located beneath user.lib.  Both _OpenG.lib =
and
_dynamicpalette_dirs are preceded by an underscore to prevent the "User
Libraries" palette from noticing them in the user.lib folder.
