1 | Jexer Work Log |

6 | Jexer is coming back to active development status. I had a lot of | |
7 | other projects ahead of it in the queue, mostly Qodem but also Jermit | |
8 | and of course lots of actual day job work keeping me too tired for | |
9 | afterhours stuff. But here we are now, and I want to get Jexer to its | |
10 | 1.0.0 release before the end of 2018. After that it will be a | |
11 | critical bit of function for IWP and NIB, if I ever get those going. | |
12 | I need to re-organize the demo app a bit so that it fits within 80x25, | |
13 | and then get to TStatusBar. | |
14 | ||
15 | A status bar will be an optional part of TWindow. If it exists, then | |
16 | it will be drawn last by TApplication and get events routed to it from | |
17 | TWindow's event handlers. This will have the nice effect that the | |
18 | status bar can change depending on which window is active, without any | |
19 | real extra work on TApplication's part. | |
20 | ||
21 | Putting together a proper TODO now, with release and regression | |
22 | checklists. I think I will see if jexer is available at SourceForge, | |
23 | and if so grab it. Perhaps I can put together some good Turbo Vision | |
24 | resources too. At the very least direct people to the Borland-derived | |
25 | C++ releases and Free Vision. | |
