Hi Tony, thanks for your letter.
So anyways, in summary then, 2 keys in the ini in a section to specify either a b64 encoding or
a PNM of images.
Probably new keys instead of overloading the existing ones used for icon filenames, something
like big_icon_inline= / small_icon_inline= or similar.
Another option would be to directly use TBmp's inline, such asThat sounds fine too. Historically there -used- to be a limit on the length of an INI string. If wxWindows is not handicapped by that, this will work. Otherwise I was thinking of just tossing the pseudo-binary images in at the end, with a length word in front of them. But inline encoding is fine too - easier to read, equally hard to edit by hand.
big_icon_inline=\000\040\000\040\000\004\000\..
small_icon_inline=\000\017\000\011\000\...
and then just add an extra "if" condition after the "get_icon" function in PQAAppInfo.py of the
Python parser to check to see if there is a value for big_icon_inline. If there is, use the
big_icon_inline value, else use the default icon.
Perhaps not; I apologize for the tone. I was stunned that in a discussion of a tool to simplify adding sites to Plucker you would expect Joe-User to build their .plkrdata tool by hand-coding it and then running a bitmap mapping tool to append to the file a encoded icon. The whole idea of this is to make it easy for corporates and other non-techies to put up easy-to-use Plucker Channel files on their sites.> Sheesh, Robert, there's a forest > hidden in those trees!Probably not the altogether most helpful comment to aid discussion.
