any "hello world" for tRio? Plugin Architecture? - 22/12/2004 06:59
Hi Paul,
We spoke months ago and I was working with you to try and get some sort of a "hello world" example for tRio. Basically getting something to display on the rio screen gracefully.
It may be nice to have some sort of a plugin architecture as well. Maybe another menu of "plugins" under which people could add weird little plugins.
Here is what I am thinking... If I could store a field in the tRio properties that I could read with my pludin it would be ideal. Here are some of the plugins I would like to develop:
1. Weather Plugin: DIsplay the weather for a given city or list of cities.
2. Random Quote/joke of the Day (via a web feed).
I know they are really simple and stuipid but I would really like to use them as a launching pad to other more complex plugins. Additionally providing source for other developers to use in helping them create other plugins.
Can anyone help?
