diagonal text is kinky, Ian's request
auto connection using A* module http://search.cpan.org/~acdalton/AI-Pathfinding-AStar-0.10/
- orthogonal or orthogonal and diagonal arrows
- add get_cost_map to base Asciio
- get_cost_map can also be implemented in draw in sub classes
- connectors and elements could have different costs
Optimize the connection optimizer
- no optimization needed for unchanged objects
- asciio must keep track of changed objects
- but we must not be intruisive
- md5 ??
re-parsable asciio output with minimal data

add actions:
- select all elements connected to currently selected element(s)
- select all elemet connected to the element under the pointer
- expend selection level with '+', also implement '-', '*', ...
- optimize current arrow (A* pathfinder)
- click + key on arrow adds a 'flex' point
what's new section
night colors don't change the ruler colors
? generate "nice looking" graph
- interface to ditaa
- HTML document?!
copy to clipboard removes empty lines at the begining of the buffer
two section arrow middle connector keeps horizontal with linked element
this would reduce the amount of changes that need to be done manually
Curses UI
tutorial
add offset input to multiple element creation window
slide mode
accept a directory as input
show slides based on sort order or order.slide.txt
allow saving of modified slides
allow deletion and insertion of slides
what if the slides are under git control?
extra window to show slide order and modify it (and the slides maybe)
extra slide menu (through actions)
open
save
insert
delete
arrow menu not working
document what ascii_events should contain
links to gtk doc
should the content itself be defined in the derived class?
split into two distributions?
=> easier for those who want to build another interface
setup/actions manipulating asciio object directely move to asciio
transparent background for cmd output
width > spaces == transparent
spaces => transparent
0 => transparent
merge arrows and split arrow
arrow merge object
like a single character text but nicer to use with arrows
or merge arrow connections directely (weld them together)
multi-ended connectors
add remove end from multi ended connectors
start and end connectors should have different colors
copy elements to the system clipboard to allow copies between instances
handle multiple versions with one of the following mechanisms:
- embed git::PurePerl
- use PAR
- multiple directories
Display version somewhere
connected, non auto-connect, arrows loose their connection if the connectee is resized
=> this is because resize doesn't keep the connection. The
canonizer reconnects elements but non auto-connect objects are not handled by the canonizer
=> make canonizer re connect to the same place instead for changing the connector
magnet object for ESD
reload color options after loading file
display_grid + element_backgound_color
search for stripe class in the setup directory
or list the directories in the setup
or add the directory as setup data and 'use lib'
let actions load stencils
forward KB + mouse events to stripes objects
table object
bulleted lists and otherwise formatted text
record box object
save as pdf and printing
more than one resize handle
zoom on pointer
#not ctl to zoom
panning
scrollbars
autosave
connector grouping
cancel button in editing windows
handle unicode (remove write_file)
now arrow can match inside a box, moving an arrow around has become more tricky
=> do not connect if both ends are unconnected and arrow is being moved
move action constants to module
optimize do_stack serialization
# use bzip2
=> diff + compress
# tests done
must have a reverse diff that can patch both ways or it's not worth it
=> alt + C
#vertical text
!signing objects and diagrams?
#toggle grid
#text object should be resized to the text size when created
#allow non auto-connect to be one character around the object instead for _on_ the object
=> this could be handled by the box object
- the box object is asked to match a connector
- the box object can dynamically create a connector
- if the box object is resized, the connectors can be moved
the connectors can remember their position if the
box object is resized again
- new connection should connect new connectors
=> we need to know who we are connecting to
=> or this could be done by the asciio object
- asciio asks the box to add a connection
this let ascioo decide where they should be placed instead for
deciding it's around the box
- the user can add connectors with the same mechanism
- the connector must be handled when resizing the box object
by the box object or by the connector itself
