Though development has unfortunately come to a crawl, a first beta of TokenMakerMaker is available for testing. Contact me if you’re interested in testing it out. It will be a feedback-driven project – features that are asked for are what will be implemented. I plan on using it to generate a few new scanners for the next version of RSTA – first will be ActionScript.

TokenMakerMaker Beta available for testing!
Saturday, September 26th, 2009Breadcrumb Bar in RText
Saturday, September 12th, 2009Progress has been very slow the last couple of weeks, unfortunately, but there has been a little bit of work going on.
The most exciting thing is definitely the addition of a breadcumb bar to RText’s file chooser. The appearance of this component tries to mimic Vista’s breadcrumb bar in Windows Explorer. Things are looking good so far:
Breadcrumb Bar
It still needs to handle runtime LaF changes properly, however. I’m also toying with having it “transform” into a text field when you click on any empty space at the end of the component, like Vista does. On an Enter keypress (or focus lost), it morphs back into a breadcrumb bar. It’s a very nice feature. Check out the current progress in SVN.
Besides that, not much has happened, save for some small progress on TokenMakerMaker. I’ll be sending a preview to those interested in testing it very soon hopefully. I also plan to eat my own dog food, and use it to generate some TokenMakers for new languages for the next RSTA release!
