Week 7: Console Complete
I accomplished all of my tasks for this week, which was nice. Below are some screenshots of the console currently and its output. The console is now formatted and any text that you type registers in the plug-in. I ran into very few issues this week - all of the libraries that I’m currently dealing with are very well documented, which is a big relief. We also had our meeting with Sam today (Friday) and everything is on track.
The console is basically complete, and I am waiting for Scott to figure out GObject compilation so that we can start bringing that into the project as well. Since I have nothing more to do on the console immediately, I’m changing track for this week. After chatting with Sam about it, I realized that I have to change the format that the plug-in is in to include an automake facility so that someone can build it automatically. I’ve already started looking into how I can do this, and it seems complicated. I hope to finish this well before Friday.
Additionally, this upcoming week, we are having a longer chat with Sam on Wednesday to plan the rest of the semester. We’re at a turning point right now and want to make sure everything goes off without a hitch. We’re going to be planning how to set up the rest of the plug-in and what exact tasks to accomplish sequentially.
I’m excited for the hack on Friday! Should be very fun and productive.
