No doubt you could do the same for Dia, but surely a betterer plan would be not to involve SIOD at all and simply write a XS module to access the Dia api directly from Perl? -- Robin Szemeti Redpoint Consulting Limited Real Solutions For A Virtual World
Python beats perl to dia plugin..
*grump* There is a python plugin to Gnome Dia allowing you to write scripts for dia. I don't know if it is like GIMPS scripting or more of a macro type thing but its a little disapointing there isn't a perl one. Dia 0.88 has an experiemental pyhton plugin capability. I would be interested in finding out hpw hard it would be to do the equivilent for perl - a la The Gimp. Anyone know much about how the GIMP script -fu stuff works on the inside, or shall I hunt through the gimp dev list which I have a feeling could be mentally scarring.
