NAME

       resourceEditor - Resource editor used as part of the PythonCard GUI framework

SYNOPSIS

       resourceEditor [file] [switches]

DESCRIPTION

       The  resourceEditor  is  the  most common starting point for constructing a PythonCard application. Using
       this tool, you can create, position, size, describe and connect not only your application's  windows  and
       all  of  the  components  they  contain  (buttons,  fields,  and  other controls), but also its menus and
       supporting dialogs. A direct-manipulation  interface  enables  you  to  create,  drag,  and  size  window
       components  in the grand tradition of Integrated Development Environments (IDEs). The resourceEditor also
       incorporates a menu editor and a background editor  for  managing  the  non-component  portions  of  your
       PythonCard application.

       Scripting is not integrated into the resourceEditor.  Instead, you should use your favorite Python script
       editor to write the code that gives your application its intelligence and  behavior  (for  instance,  you
       could use codeEditor(1), also part of the PythonCard GUI framework).

SWITCHES

       Note that switches must come after any filename in order to be recognized.

       -p     Show property editor

       -m     Show message watcher

       -l     Enable logging

       -s     Show shell

       -m     Show namespace

       -d     Show debug menu

NOTES

       The  resourceEditor utility also provides additional functionality that is not discussed in this manpage,
       because it is somewhat difficult to completely describe usage of a GUI program in a  text-based  manpage.
       For  more detailed usage instructions or for more information on the PythonCard GUI framework in general,
       you should install the pythoncard-doc package and take a look at the various walk-throughs, tutorials and
       samples included with it.

       Once    the    pythoncard-doc    package    is    installed,    the   documentation   is   installed   to
       /usr/share/doc/pythoncard-doc, and is also available via Debian's doc-base infrastructure -  find  it  in
       the Devel section using dwww(1), doc-central(1) or dhelp(1).

       If you would rather not install the pythoncard-doc package, you can find essentially the same information
       on the PythonCard website:

       http://pythoncard.sourceforge.net

BUGS

       Although it is considered to be stable, this is still development-level software.

       Please report bugs in this  or  any  PythonCard  component  to  the  Debian  Bug  Tracking  system  using
       reportbug(1).
