Pipeglade
Jul 20, 2023
Graphical user interface driven by pipes or fifos
Pipeglade is a helper program that displays graphical user interfaces for other programs. It renders the GUI definition found in a GtkBuilder file created using the Glade Interface Designer, and communicates with the main program solely via pipes or fifos.
To have its GUI rendered by pipeglade, a program must be able to
- send plain text commands to standard output or a named pipe and/or
- receive and parse simple plain text messages from standard input or a named pipe.
Simple one-shot dialogs as well as more complex, long-running programs can be built.
Pipeglade provides access to a subset of the features available in GTK+ 3. Widgets able to communicate via pipeglade include text labels and images, statusbars and progress indicators, various kinds of buttons, spinbuttons and scales/sliders, comboboxes and menus, various text and tabular inputs, various standard dialog windows, calendars, drawing areas.
