Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Package name: gtkparasite Homepage: http://chipx86.github.com/gtkparasite/ License: MIT Description: GTK+ debugging and development tool Parasite is a debugging and development tool that runs inside your GTK+ application's process. It can inspect your application, giving you detailed information on your UI, such as the hierarchy, X window IDs, widget properties, and more. You can modify properties on the fly in order to experiment with the look of your UI. . But you can go further than that. You can actually modify your application logic while the program is running! Parasite includes an embedded Python shell that lets you write new code that directly interacts with your application's UI, regardless of the language the application is written in. Create new dialogs, attach temporary signal handlers to buttons, test out new logic, and gather additional debug information.
This package had been packaged by Devid in 2009 [1] but was later removed on request due to lack of upstream activity [2]. Lately upstream started to support GTK3 so we should provide this package again.
