what is this
===
a proof of concept of a structural editor and a programming / shell language / user interface, inspired by inform 7, playing with natural language-like projections and stuff

fedora 27
===
 sudo yum install git python3-devel python3-numpy freetype-devel autoconf automake libtool libffi-devel
 
 i didnt succeed in building libmarpa under fedora, but you can use:

git clone git@github.com:lemon-operating-language/libmarpa-dist.git 
cd libmarpa-dist/dist/
autoreconf -i
./configure 
make
sudo make install




getting it to run - ubuntu16.4

cd libmarpa;

cd dist;

sudo make install ;
cd ../../



#optionally:
virtualenv -p python3  env

pip install -r requirements.txt
#or: pip3 install --user \

git clone https://github.com/koo5/new_shit.git
cd new_shit


LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/lib/libmarpa.so ./src/sdl_client.py










getting it to run - old
===
needed:
python3.4, 3.5 (?)
fuzzywuzzy - for basic ordering of the menu

recommended:
cffi and libmarpa - needed for parsing
apt-get install python3-cffi
or
pip3 install --user cffi
build and install
https://github.com/jeffreykegler/libmarpa.git
or run with --lame

apt-get install python3-pip python3.4
pip3 install --user fuzzywuzzy

the pygame frontend requires pygame, obviously  
python3 pygame:
https://packages.debian.org/experimental/python3-pygame
http://pygame.org/wiki/CompileUbuntu
^this seems to work well
https://launchpad.net/~thopiekar/+archive/ubuntu/pygame <- seems to not include freetype


running it
===
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/lib/libmarpa.so ./src/sdl_client.py


if the latest commit doesnt run, git checkout HEAD^ until you find one that does:)


getting started
===
some context sensitive help is in the sidebar. Press F1 to toggle between menu and help. Move the cursor a bit. 
Stop by in the irc channel. 



files
===
* sdl_client.py: the frontend, handles a window, events, drawing. run this one.
* nodes.py: AST classes
* widgets.py textbox, number box, button..
* element.py - both widgets and nodes descend from Element
* tags.py: the results of calling element.render(), text, attribute, child..
* server_frames.py, rpcing_frames.py: the panels: Root, Menu, Info..
* lemon_colors.py: color settings
* lemon_args.py: command line arguments
* notes1: a failed attempt to migrate all documentation into lemon:)

linux system control dependencies
===
sudo apt install wmctrl xbacklight xrandr 
 





plans
===
splitting the program into the server, the pygame editor frontend window, and a new QT-based sidebar window. After researching several options im leaning
towards using gRPC for this.
(possibly both-ways) integrations with: 
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/xiki/xikihub-the-social-command-line
https://github.com/MycroftAI
gnome3/unity/whatever menu
only one way:
solr or ES for searching through local documents from within newshit
i would also like to do some front-ending for https://github.com/researchstudio-sat/webofneeds
as well as further develop ./hallucinations/koord.lemon.txt , which could be integrated in webofneeds
