- Short: Relative BOOPSI Gadget + GroupGadget
- Author: Jeroen Massar (t-jeroem@microsoft.com)

- Type: dev/gui
-
- These couple of BOOPSI gadgets allow you to create a fast total BOOPSI
- window which resizes automaticaly because it uses the input.device task.
- This is totally OS legal and it is the best way to make use of the full
- set of features of BOOPSI. Why another GUI? I hear you say, well simply
- when you use MUI, it takes too much memory (like those huge MS programs).
- Secondly, the program has to watch the user if it changes the dimensions
- of the window, eg. the program always to call the GUI's wait routine.
- With this solution you simply call Exec's GetMsg() when you really have
- time to wait and when you really want to know if the user pressed a button.
- This solution is generally less CPU and memory intensive. This is a
- developer release, if you have some comments about my way of thinking or
- about these gadgets in general mail me... You should simply copy the classes
- directory to your sys: partition of your harddisk and then check out DaGuru
- to see the gadgets at work. The gadgets could send things to the serial port,
- as I've not removed/disabled all debug code, so enable sushi! The DaGuru
- interface is derived from the interface of The Guru 3.0 by Emiel Lensink, he
- knows about these gadgets and the user-interface. You can include *ANY* BOOPSI
- gadget you want and it'll resize whenever possible. The gadgets are arranged in
- a group and by setting orientation you can specify how the group is layed out.
- Simply using a group inside a group allows you to create any GUI you want.
-
- PS: Like you should've noticed, I've got an Microsoft e-mail address, well
- this can be explained very easily, I'm currently doing a practical year,
- half of which I did in the Dijkzigt Hospital's Thoraccentre in Rotterdam,
- Holland and the other at the PSS Group of Microsoft in Hoofddorp, Holland.
- The e-mail address is valid until 6-6-1997.
