But I assume that it will be quite a challenge to implement/represent all
GNUstep/Renaissance GUI widgets with (X)HTML and javascipt etc.
Someone already did that for the Mac OS X GUI, and the result is impressive.
The problem is I can't find it back...
Does anyone see which project I'm talking about?
My comment is not really concerning Renaissance, but the idea of using GNUstep
UI through the web...
What about feeding the Renaissance/Gorm interface through the web as is with
some kind of scripts/compilable objc code? On the user's side the UI will be
built as it is done currently by GNUstep apps, the script should handle local
events and for more stuff it will send messages to a DO server on the other
side. So, instead of:
HTTP+HTML->Web Browser
there will be:
DO+Renaissance or DO+Gorm -> GNUstep UI Client
Btw. in the newest cocoa there is quite nice class that can be used just for
that: NSNib. Just transport it through the net, connect it to some proxy/script
object and you have an UI for a remote server.
Is that possible?
