Issue |
Is there any sort of utility that would make it easy to have a shell script display and/or prompt for input via Photon? |
Solution |
Absolutely, take a look at Slang (downloaded from www.cognet.ca). It gives access to all of the Photon widgets, runs using the #!/<shell> script designation, supports usage messages, gives access to system calls, IPC, ipc/outp, and shared memory. It will even read a PhAB widget file to produce any display, prompt or dialog. |
