One idea I had for tryswift was to change the way that file
outputs are displayed. Keeping them in a drop down list saves
some space and I think makes it look a little cleaner. To see
what I mean, check out <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://swiftvm4.ci.uchicago.edu">http://swiftvm4.ci.uchicago.edu</a> and try
the foreach example (still working on some CSS changes there
as well).
<br>
<br>
Right now it only handles html/text, but if the file output
was images or videos, they could be loaded in the same window.
Just wanted to get your initial thoughts before I did too much
with it.

Hi David,
<br>
<br>
I think this is heading in a nice direction. It looks very nice
and clean.
<br>
<br>
Some thoughts:
<br>
<br>
Top window:
<br>
- Add text in front of menu: Example: [example-menu] [Explain]
<br>
- [Explain] button should pop out in a new window, sized and
placed "nicely" (not quite sure what nicely involves yet ;)
<br>
<br>
Bottom window
<br>
- its hard to tell when the script completes or how many files
it produced
<br>
- when you view a file it overwrites the progress window
<br>
- (reset is broken, btw)
<br>
<br>
How about:
<br>
- dont show the output-files menu while the script is running
<br>
- when script completes, show the menu with a label [N files
produced:] [output-files-menu]
<br>
- when you select a file, show it in a new popup window "placed
nicely" with a [close] button top and bottom
<br>
- allowing that window to be multi-media sounds nice
<br>
<br>
Bigger project:
<br>
- for status, show running tally of the status to the right of
the control buttons
<br>
- add button [Progress log] that shows the progress to date or
after the fact, as a pop-up. With cleaner timestamp etc. WHich
we should make the default for all Swift runs.
<br>
<br>
So with this improved progress menu, you'd have a very clean
look with the Swift text taking most of the window, bracketd by
a script-selector stripe at the top and an execution control
strip at the bottom.
<br>
<br>
How do these sound to you?
<br>
<br>
