Hello, I have a project that is not related to LinuxCNC, but looks like it is closely aligned with Glade and maybe Python. I hope list member son;t mind the digression.
I have built some control GUIs in the past with Tk/Tcl linked to C++ programs with swig. These were purely control, they never did anything on their own, only responding to keyboard or mouse clicks. This one needs to show the state of a device and update automatically. I think the Tk/Tcl mode of doing things doesn't work well in this case, but it looks to be more in line with Glade and maybe Python. I have glade 2.12 on my desktop, but that appears to be totally ancient. I got glade 3.6 on another system, and managed to create a simple GUI and find the XML file, but haven't figured out what to do with it. I need to interface the XML to a c program running on a BeagleBoard, but if Python makes interfacing this to a web server easy, then that might be fine. There needs to be a c program because it is taking direct control over OMAP GPIO hardware at the register level. So, any suggestions on what programs to use, what methods might be appropriate to tie this all together, and any tutorials that are really helpful would be greatly appreciated. The glade "tutorial" seems to be a blog with somewhat useful info for the already partly-up-to-speed coder, but is not much help at the state I am at right now. Thanks much for any pointers!
