|
=================
|
|
|
|
tcledit is a world editor for the traveler. You should be able to build it
|
|
under Linux or Cygwin. It needs X11 and Tcl/Tk.
|
|
|
|
At the time of 'make', you must have a valid Traveler configuration instantiated
|
|
in the NuttX directory. This is because the build will depend on certain
|
|
configurations (such as color format).
|
|
|
|
1. cd nuttx/tools
|
|
./configure.sh sim/traveler (for example)
|
|
2. cd ..
|
|
tools/sethost.sh -w or -l
|
|
make context
|
|
|
|
Prepare some header files. This is necessary because we must use ALL of the
|
|
toolchain header files except for a few files from nuttx (for example,
|
|
config.h).
|
|
|
|
3. cd apps/graphics/traveler/tools/nuttx
|
|
4. make TOPDIR=<nuttx directory>
|
|
|
|
Build the world library:
|
|
|
|
5. cd apps/graphics/traveler/tools/libwld
|
|
6a. make
|
|
|
|
If you want to create a debug-able version of the library, do:
|
|
|
|
6b. make DEBUG_LEVEL=1
|
|
|
|
Then you can use xmfmk to create the Makefile and build the tool:
|
|
|
|
7. cd apps/graphics/traveler/tools/tcledit
|
|
8. Review Imakefile. You will probabaly to to change the APPDIR and TOPDIR paths
|
|
a minimum. These are the paths to where you have clones the apps/ repository
|
|
and the nuttx/ repositories, respectively.
|
|
9. xmfmk
|
|
10a. make tcledit
|
|
|
|
If you want to create a debug-able version of tcledit, do:
|
|
|
|
10b. make tcledit DEBUG_LEVEL=1
|
|
|
|
On Cygwin, the make target will be tcledit.exe, not tcledit.
|
|
|
|
Usage
|
|
=====
|
|
|
|
./tcledit [-D <directory>] [-o <outfilename>] <infilename>
|
|
|
|
Where <infilename> is the original world file name which will be overwritten
|
|
unless <outfilename> is provided. Optionally, switch to <directory> before
|
|
opening <infilenamea>.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: The default traveler world file is apps/graphics/traverler/world/transfrm.wld.
|
|
The file contains relative paths so you may have to CD in to the directory first
|
|
like:
|
|
|
|
./tcledit -D ../../world transfrm.wld
|
|
|
|
On Cywgin, the correct name of the program will be tcledit.exe and must also
|
|
remember to start the X11 server before trying run the applications.
|
|
|
|
Saying that the UI is difficult to use would probably be an understatement.
|
|
When you start tcledit, four windows appear: Three X11 graphics windows and
|
|
one Tcl/Tk edit window. The four graphic windows present a view at the
|
|
currently selected X, Y, and planes with a grid and positioning lines. This
|
|
gives an accurate rather incomprehensible view into the 3-dimensional world.
|
|
|
|
At the top of Tcl/Tk window are three sliders that can be quickly used to
|
|
generally position yourself in the world. As you move a slider, the
|
|
position indicator moves in the corresponding plane view window. You can
|
|
set position more precisely with the X, Y, and Z position data entry fields.
|
|
|
|
The Tcl/Tk edit window also has controls to manage the plane at the selected
|
|
position: Add X, Y, or Z plane, Save data, Zoom in or out, etc.
|
|
|
|
Chances are if you don't know where the planes are defined in the world, you
|
|
won't even be able to find them. Hint: position to X=704, Y=704, and Z=576.
|
|
There you should see something in the default world. Trying zooming 8x or
|
|
more. The plane is shown in light blue; the edges of othogonal planes are
|
|
shown in even lighter blue.
