|
|||
should call update_views() on the Switchboard object. Not that the
|
||||
Viewer typically does *not* update itself before calling update_views(),
|
||||
since this would cause it to get updated twice.
|
||||
|
||||
Optionally, Viewers can also implement:
|
||||
|
||||
- save_options() which takes an optiondb (a dictionary). Store into this
|
||||
dictionary any values the Viewer wants to save in the persistent
|
||||
~/.pynche file. This dictionary is saved using marshal. The namespace
|
||||
for the keys is ad-hoc; make sure you don't clobber some other Viewer's
|
||||
keys!
|
||||
|
||||
- withdraw() which takes no arguments. This is called when Pynche is
|
||||
unmapped. All Viewers should implement this.
|
||||
|
||||
- colordb_changed() which takes a single argument, an instance of
|
||||
ColorDB. This is called whenever the color name database is changed and
|
||||
gives a chance for the Viewers to do something on those events. See
|
||||
ListViewer for details.
|
||||
|
||||
External Viewers are found dynamically. Viewer modules should have names such
|
||||
as FooViewer.py. If such a named module has a module global variable called
|
||||
ADDTOVIEW and this variable is true, the Viewer will be added dynamically to
|
||||
the `View' menu. ADDTOVIEW contains a string which is used as the menu item
|
||||
to display the Viewer (one kludge: if the string contains a `%', this is used
|
||||
to indicate that the next character will get an underline in the menu,
|
||||
otherwise the first character is underlined).
|
||||
|
||||
FooViewer.py should contain a class called FooViewer, and its constructor
|
||||
should take two arguments, an instance of Switchboard, and optionally a Tk
|
||||
master window.
