1. A graphical object editor and Macintosh environment.
2. A user interface development environment for Common Lisp
and X11 from The Garnet project team. It helps you create
graphical, interactive user interfaces.
Version 2.2 includes the following: a custom object-oriented
programming system which uses a prototype-instance model.
automatic constraint maintenance allowing properties of
objects to depend on properties of other objects and be
automatically re-evaluated when the other objects change. The
constraints can be arbitrary Lisp expressions. Built-in,
high-level input event handling. Support for gesture
recognition. Widgets for multi-font, multi-line,
mouse-driven text editing. Optional automatic layout of
application data into lists, tables, trees or graphs.
Automatic generation of PostScript for printing. Support
for large-scale applications and data visualisation.
Also supplied are: two complete widget sets, one with a
Motif look and feel implemented in Lisp and one with a
custom look and feel. Interactive design tools for creating
parts of the interface without writing code: Gilt interface
builder for creating dialog boxes. Lapidary interactive
tool for creating new widgets and for drawing
application-specific objects. C32 spreadsheet system for
specifying complex constraints.
Not yet available: Jade automatic dialog box creation system.
Marquise interactive tool for specifying behaviours.
