Most of March saw me working on the complete rewrite of my translator's workbench, code named 'JMLS'. I've worked on various 'manifestations' of this platform since 1998 but, such a complete and thorough rewrite, I'm seriously reconsidering renaming as 'Tyndale' after arguably the greatest translator in the English language who lived during the 16th Century.
Next month will see a near complete binding of the gtk vte widget along with its introspective help. The absolute dearth of meaningful public documentation on the virtual terminal is frustrating as its difficult to determine how the large range of options and signals work together to form a meaningful whole. Still, time will tell.
Now to bring the gnocl::canvas widget up to date!
