Okay started writing my first speech programming command for Leo. It's very
simple. Given a line of text in a node, converted to a section heading and
create a new section of that name. My intent is to look at the text on the
line where the cursor is. Take the line, everything from the first nonwhite
space character in the line to the last nonwhite space character in the
line is used as the section heading. Any trailing whitespace is removed. By
adding "<< " and " >>" as appropriate, I can use the text as a section
heading both in the child node and in the original node. Focus is returned
to the original node and the cursor moves down one line to prepare for the
next running of the same command.
I'm not even close to having this even outlined but here is what I've
pieced together from reading the docs.
last = c.lastTopLevel()
head, lines, tail, oldSel, oldYview = c.getBodyLines()
g.es(">>>"+type(head)+"<<<")
g.es(">>>"+type(tail)+"<<<")
g.es(">>>"+type(lines)+"<<<")
g.es(">>>"+type(oldSel)+"<<<")
g.es(">>>"+type(oldYview)+"<<<")
new_node.h = 'my net node'
new_node = p.insertAsLastChild().copy()
new_node.b = "'''\n'''"
c.redraw(new_node) # Selects the new node.
There's a bunch of things here that I'd don't understand but I'm making a
guess. The new_node header and body code work. I can create a child node
with the given name and a given body. But why did the example put a copy
after insertAtLastChild? I'm also not sure how to invoke getBodyLines().
it gives me a:
TypeError: must be str, not type
--------------------
line 3: last = c.lastTopLevel()
* line 4: head, lines, tail, oldSel, oldYview = c.getBodyLines()
line 5: g.es(">>>"+type(head)+"<<<")
line 6: g.es(">>>"+type(tail)+"<<<")
I've been staring at this too much for it to make sense anymore.
