Product Description:

Pashua ist a tool for creating native Aqua dialog windows for Perl, PHP, Tcl, Python, Rexx and shell scripts as well as AppleScript. The GUI elements which can be used for such dialogs include text input fields, checkboxes, radiobuttons, popup menus, open panels or buttons. Moreover, it's possible to embed images or PDFs. Any data submitted from the dialog will be passed on to the calling script.
To describe the dialog window, Pashua uses a very simple syntax. All the tedious details such as positioning the elements, calculating the window size etc. are handled automatically by Pashua, thus you can fully concentrate on your application.

What's new in this version:

  • By default, openbrowser and savebrowser navigate to the directory which contains the currently selected item, provided that you did select something before.
  • Improvements in AppleScript code (contributed by Hans Haesler)
  • Tempfile cleanup in the Perl module did not work as expected, therefore Pashua.pm now uses the module File::Temp
  • Small fixes in Tcl code
  • New GUI element textbox, for displaying multi-line, scrollable input fields
  • New GUI element image for displaying images
  • Fixes a bug in button positioning code: when no cancel button should be visible, no space is allocated for it
  • Fixes in the PHP code

Pashua ReviewIncredible - Version: 0.9.1, 11/6/2004 07:01PM PST

I can't believe I haven't seen this before! I am a python hacker and have never been satisfied with the cross platform guis for python. they are just not cocoa enough. My projects aren't pyobjc worthy, so until xcode has a decent python integration this is a perfect solution.

I've only played with it a bit so far, but I am very impressed.

Thank you!

Pashua CommentaryIf you're a unix shell oriented type you will love this... - Version: 0.9, 7/14/2004 08:47AM PST

I've been writing unix shell and perl scripts for years as well as some Facespan and applescript but my preferred modus operandi is perl. I think I dream in perl at night. Being able to combine in a matter of minutes a GUI with perl scripts instead of to having "roll your own" user interface through Facespan or some other such GUI builder tool is like manna from heaven.

I can concentrate on the guts of the code instead of making windows behave...I love it.
