Merlin II Released
« on: October 20, 2003, 05:06:01 PM »
Merlin II is the successor of Merlin and runs on AmigaOS 2.x, 3.x and Morphos.

"Merlin is a system to make GUI's to control your Amiga. It has a very easy way to use MultiMedia windows in your applications, which works with a GUI description language. It has a Dynamic GUI engine, combined with a graphics engine. Version 2 is a complete rewrite of Version 1, it is now based on my
crystal library .. so it has an abstraction layer for graphics systems."

While I do like the basic idea, I must really wonder why we need yet
another propertary GUI-system, when it should have been possible to
base it on an allready existing one (MUI prefered ;-) ).

1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else

When this program interprets the scripts for a GUI, does it draw the GUI useing the systems native GUI? Such as Intuition or Reaction?

If so, then, i like it.

What i'd also like to see is an XML description language so that one can write Reaction interfaces with XML/XSL. Or Maybe we should just port Mozilla for that?

I like the idea very much though because it has the potential to speed up the creation of a GUI for an app.
