- I'm looking for a tool to fill out forms interactively.
- A form (maybe a LaTeX file) consists of many fixed parts
- and some variable parts (strings or numbers).
- Some parts of the form may be computations depending on
- those variable parts.
- The tool now should be able to read a description of
- the form and ask for the required fields, checking
- whether the string or number entered by me fulfills
- certain condition (e.g. length of the string, value of
- the number,...). The output of the tool should be the
- filled out form.
- Does such a thing exist somewhere?
- It would be nice to have a graphical interface, where
- the form is displayed and the required fields can be entered
- in boxes.
- Thank you in advance for your help.
