Hey all,
The netpd project's chat interface inspired me to fix up the [entry]
object so that it could serve as the building block for a chat app.
I've added a number of improvements:
- fixed fg/bg color bug
- created [add( message which allows you to add to existing text
- added float support to [set( and [add( messages
- created second outlet which outputs the keys as you type them (this
makes it easy to assign the enter/return key to make the box send its
text).
- made the inlet visible.
- added rudimentary [size x y( message
There are a couple of things that I think would be worth adding:
- a message to add one character at a time
- messages to change the font face, size, and weight
- messages to change the border of the box
This is in today's auto-builds if you want to try it.
