Free gui building software for linux

The Java Gui Builder program is designed to decouple the GUI building code from the rest of the application code, without hand-writing code.

It allows one to describe the layout of windows and controls using an XML file. A full DTD was written to allow on-the-fly validation.

Using an XML file to describe GUI components allows users the flexibility to rewrite their windows so that they suit their needs, without opening up the innards of the program to the users.

Java Gui Builder can run on any Swing enabled J2SE platform. JGB was tested against Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.1_08-b03) and Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.1_01-b01). If you want to build JGB, you will need J2SE 1.4 or better. It is not possible to build on 1.3, but can be used on 1.3.

My Own Building System (a.k.a. mobs) is a GPLd build system, lightweight and easy to use, with a limited application framework. My Own Building System project gets information from the end-user wanting to build your project and modifies the building process according to such information.

It provides the developer with some development helpers, including some makefile framework and an interface for the end-user (the 0 script). This building system supports the (more or less) automatic building of C, C++, Bison/Yacc, Flex/Lex, and Texinfo source files, and the creation of static and shared libraries and binaries.

It is not a GNU autoconf/automake clone, and although the command line of the 0 script certainly mimics the one of GNU configure it is only for the sake of end-users. Internally, and from the point of view of the developer, is very different.

MURIX Linux is a distribution based on LinuxFromScratch for building bootable CD-ROMs.

Since you build it from source, MURIX should function on almost any hardware.

Getopt::GUI::Long is a wrapper around Getopt::Long that extends the value of the original Getopt::Long module.

SYNOPSIS

use Getopt::GUI::Long;

# pass useful config options to Configure
Getopt::GUI::Long::Configure(qw(display_help no_ignore_case capture_output));
GetOptions(%opts,
["GUI:separator", "Important Flags:"],
["f|some-flag=s", "A flag based on a string"],
["o|other-flag", "A boloean"],
);

# or use references instead of a hash (less tested, however):

GetOptions(["some-flag=s", "perform some flag based on a value"] => $flag,
["other-flag=s", "perform some flag based on a value"] => $other);

# displays auto-help given the input above:

% opttest -h
Usage: opttest [OPTIONS] Other Arguments

OPTIONS:

Important Flags:
-f STRING A flag based on a string
-o A boloean

Help Options:
-h Display help options -- short flags preferred
--help Display help options -- long flags preferred
--help-full Display all help options -- short and long



# or long help:

% opttest --help
Usage: opttest [OPTIONS] Other Arguments

OPTIONS:

Important Flags:
--some-flag=STRING A flag based on a string
--other-flag A boloean

Help Options:
-h Display help options -- short flags preferred
--help Display help options -- long flags preferred
--help-full Display all help options -- short and long

# or a GUI screen:

(see http://net-policy.sourceforge.net/images/getopt_example.png )

It can:

1) add a simple graphical user interface option screen if no arguments are passed to the program. Thus, the arguments to actually use are built based on the results of the user interface. If arguments were passed to the program, the user interface is not shown and the program executes as it normally would and acts just as if Getopt::Long::GetOptions had been called instead.

2) provide an auto-help mechanism such that -h and --help are handled automatically. In fact, calling your program with -h will default to showing the user a list of short-style arguments when one exists for the option. Similarly --help will show the user a list of long-style when possible. --help-full will list all potential arguments for an option (short and long both).

Its designed to make the creation of graphical shells trivial without the programmer having to think about it much as well as providing automatic good-looking usage output without the programmer needing to write usage() functions.

Xffm-gui library is used by some xffm applications, such as the xffm-filemanager.
It was developed as a part of the xffm file manager, and has evolved into a separate package. It has a desk view, icon view, and tree view.
Xffm is the integration of xftree, xfsamba and xfglob with additional enhancements and use of the gtk-2.0 library.
The final xffm is integrated by Edscott Wilson Garcia, but xffm is possible thanks to the many peoples who have contributed time, work and resources.
Enhancements:
- Initial release of the library as an independent package.

Anatomic P2P is a BitTorrent Client written in GTK with an extension enabling decentralisation.

It is written in pygtk using the original core of BitTornado and it can access the Anatomic P2P network of supernodes and trackers so that files can be swarmed over multiple nodes on the network creating great efficiency.

Crucible provides a powerful, flexible backend for building automated testing systems. Crucible allows for conducting tests on multiple machines (via NFS), including patching, rebuilding, and booting new kernels, libraries, and services.

Configuration and customization can be done through simple config files and bash scripts. It is suitable for performing tests of GUI applications, services, libraries, and kernel patches.

TOAD C++ GUI Library aims to make GUI development being more fun.
The TOAD C++ GUI Library is a set of C++ classes for developing X Window applications. Since there are so many other GUI libraries around (the living ones: GTK+, Qt, LessTif, Motif, fltk, Xclasses, notif, OpenLook, wxWindows, Fox and the dead ones: SUIT, Andrew Toolkit, InterViews, Fresco, XForms, ET++, Common Point and many more) you may ask yourself why one should use the TOAD C++ GUI Library? Take a look at it and you will see the answer (or not ;) ).
The TOAD C++ GUI Library is free software under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License 2.1 (LGPL).
Main features:
- UTF-8 text encoding
- True Color and color dithering on 4 to 8 bit display depths
- Platform independent font specification via fontconfig (for both X11 and FreeType fonts)
- Pluggable Layout Managers
- 2D vector graphic editor and PostScript(TM) output
- Minimal HTML Viewer for Online Documentation
- ISO C++ Template based Signal & Slot alike callbacks with optional closures
- Model-View Architecture
- Decoupled Menubar
- Methods and the menubar/toolbar are connected automatically over the window hierarchy.
- Decoupled Undo Management
- Undo objects and undomangers/menubars are connected automatically over the window hierarchy.
- Runtime Layout Editor
- Layouts of dialogs, menubars, formlayouts, etc. can be configured at runtime.
- ATV based Object Serialisation
