A way to call external programs
Locked
 
|
Hi:
I just wonder how to call external programas, for example in shareware world is very common to have in a desktop program options to go to the website of the product, for example to check the FAQ page, to put a "Like" in the Facebook page, etc.
In Dolphin exist a Shell library that is easy to use, some sort of: ShellLibrary default shellOpen: 'www.passwordspro.com/buy.html'.
but in a multiplatform tool as Cuis the things are a bit more complicated. Exist some package already? We should think in OSProcess and CommandShell ports?

Hi Germán,
IIRC, StyledTextEditor includes such a feature in the package CrappyOSProcess.pck: https://github.com/bpieber/Cuis-StyledTextEditor/blob/master/CrappyOSProcess.pck Cheers, Bernhard Am 12.01.2013 um 13:57 schrieb Germán Arduino: > Hi: > > I just wonder how to call external programas, for example in shareware world is very common to have in a desktop program options to go to the website of the product, for example to check the FAQ page, to put a "Like" in the Facebook page, etc. > > In Dolphin exist a Shell library that is easy to use, some sort of: > > ShellLibrary default > shellOpen: 'www.passwordspro.com/buy.html'. > > but in a multiplatform tool as Cuis the things are a bit more complicated. > > Exist some package already?

I did a pull request asking about the status of the *OSProcess.pck... :-) https://github.com/bpieber/Cuis-StyledTextEditor/pull/9 Could we move it to a separate repository so that we can work on it independently of StyledTextEditor?

And I see that there is as well FFI
https://github.com/bpieber/Cuis-StyledTextEditor/blob/master/FFI.pck Where did the code come from? What is the status? --Hannes On 1/14/13, H.

Hi Hannes,
I don't think you need to do a pull request for that. Just opening an issue is fine. BTW, asking via email could be enough too. I called it Crappy because it was born as a sort of a hack. It is a very reduced version of OSProcess. All the included functionality works ok. Tested on Mac and Linux. You can just try it. Cheers, Juan Vuletich H.

The status is usable. I used it only on Windows, but there should not be (big) problems to use it on other platforms. Cheers, Juan Vuletich > On 1/14/13, H.
