! Last updated: 2002-04-13
  
! This represents the beginnings of a GUI resource (layout) editor for PythonCard.
  
! You can view the attributes for all components and menus by selecting the Resource... menu item in the View menu prior to doing a Save or Save As... under the File menu to output a new file.
  
! Known Bugs and Issues:
! There are no constraints applied when the shift key is held down, but there is there a grid for the widgets to "snap to".
  
! You can only select one widget at a time.
  
! Sizers and anchors are not supported. It is likely anchors will be supported before sizers.
  
! Some of the components don't move or resize correctly all the time, you should report problems to the mailing list. The Choice component seems prone to this movement problem. If a component is difficult to select or move, you can always select it via the Property Editor and then change its position attribute via the Property Editor rather than trying to drag the control itself; the sizing handles should also work.
  
! There is a bug that causes the top three sizing handles to appear incorrectly, usually when the widget y position is at -1. I am trying to determine if this is actually a problem with wxPython or some rare interaction in the resourceEditor code. [I think this is fixed as of release 0.6.2 -ka]
  
! When editing a dialog or other window that doesn't have a menubar, you'll probably need to increase the vertical size of the window by 20 or 30 pixels to compensate for the resourceEditor menubar. Once your layout looks the way you want it you can subtract the pixel padding you added earlier. On Microsoft Windows, the menubar may wrap if the width of the window is not wide enough, in which case you'll need to add even more padding.
  
! The next revision of the resourceEditor will use a separate window for doing layout so that the size of a window is always accurate and shows the menubar of the app you're editing.

! Python Source Code Editor
  
! The codeEditor sample in PythonCard is focused on being a simple to use Python source code editor. It is not intended to be a generic editor or replace vi(m), Emacs, etc. If you are already happy with your existing editing environment for Python source code, there is no particular reason you have to switch. codeEditor and the resourceEditor and shell will be more tightly integrated as the project progresses so that the user has a simple Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for building desktop applications without needing to use an external program for editing.
  
! Based on textEditor sample, but using wxStyledTextCtrl (wxSTC)
  
! For more information, see:
  
! PythonCard Editor (codeEditor) wiki page
! http://wiki.wxpython.org/index.cgi/PythonCardEditor
  
! wxStyledTextCtrl documentation
! http://wiki.wxpython.org/index.cgi/wxStyledTextCtrl
  
! If you use this sample as a real text editor then you should be careful to always work on backup copies of documents in case there are bugs that might corrupt your text.
  
! You can change the style used to display the source code; the style is also used by the PythonCard shell.
  
! The last position and size of the window will be saved in a user.config.txt file.
  
! The About dialog displays the current filename, character, word, and line count.
! 
! Scriptlets
! See the following message in the archive for more info.

! 
! Associating Python files with codeEditor on Windows
! 
! These instructions are for Windows 2000. They may be slightly different on other versions of Windows.
! 
! 1. Open the Explorer and choose "Folder Options..." under the "Tools" menu
! 2. Click on the "File Types" tab
! 3. Scroll down in the "Registered file types" list and select extension "PY  Python File"
! 4. Click on the "Advanced" button
! 4a. You should be looking at an "Edit File Type" dialog with a list of Actions such as Edit and Open. Open is probably in bold since it is the default action usually associated with .py files.
! 5. Click on the "New..." button
! 5a. You should be looking at a "New Action" dialog
! 6. In the "Action:" field type in a label such as "Edit with PythonCard". This is the label that will show up in the context menu when you right-click on a .py file in the Explorer
! 7. in the "Application used to perform action:" field you need to specify the path to the Python executable as well as the location of the codeEditor.py file. On a Python 2.3.3 installation using the default installer this will look like:
! 
! C:\Python23\pythonw.exe C:\Python23\Lib\site-packages\PythonCard\tools\codeEditor\codeEditor.py "%1"
! 
! Substitute your own paths for the ones above and put quotes (") around the paths with spaces in them, if any. If you want a console when codeEditor.py runs, then use python.exe instead of pythonw.exe
! 
! 8. Click "OK"
! 8a. You should now have an "Edit with PythonCard" item in your "Edit File Type" dialog
! 8b. The item in bold is the default action; Open will be the default if nothing is showing up in bold. Whether you want to "Edit with PythonCard" or "Open" (run) a script when you double-click a file in the Explorer is of course a personal preference. If you want "Edit with PythonCard" as the default action, then select "Edit with PythonCard" in the list, and click the "Set Default" button.
! 9. Click "OK"
! 10. Click "Close" in the "Folder Options" dialog
! 11. Open a directory in the explorer that contains a .py file, then right-click on the file and choose "Edit with PythonCard" and the file should be opened with codeEditor.py
! 11a. If it doesn't work, double-check the steps above
! 12. Repeat the process for .pyw files, using the same name and path.
