Maybe not right this moment, but I believe you are quite capable of creating HTML forms.

So would I - but you're questioning scripting in general. Whereas the concern here is about user-friendly GUI.zer0 wrote:scripting is an alien concept to many people -- granted, it is quite awesome for some other people too -- I would rather see them integrated in the main product than being left to scripting.
I am not questioning scripting in general, I use scripting and am thankful for it. However, personally, I cannot think of situations for my usage of XY where a complex, scripting GUI with radio buttons and text boxes would be necessary. Maybe I am missing something. A WYSIWIG-like editor may be a better addition, because it would reduce the level of scripting expertise that would be required.Stef123 wrote:So would I - but you're questioning scripting in general.

The currently possible scripting GUIs look more like web-based submit forms. Just not as professional as the usual dialogs you deal with in a Windows environment, be that XY or AHK or Windows itself.

You might say, that you don't need it. And that you think that maybe it's not worth the effort of Don.
But don't pretend it's not needed because you don't need it.
I am not saying it is not needed. I am saying that I struggle to imagine a situation, for what I do with XY, where any kind of pop-up scripted GUI would be beneficial. But, if it's so awesome, a WYSIWYG editor that can help create workflows with scripting "under the hood" would be better. That way, hopefully you get your wish and the concept of scripted GUI would be opened up to the masses.PeterH wrote:So the difference is: you say there is no use for it, others have use for it.
