<p>Hey all, so recently I have been busy coding this API that adds a bit of easy, screen-size independent
graphics.
Now on GitHub:
https://github.com/M...ose/tree/master
Features:
-Automatically detects if the screen is color or not, and if not (now comes the magic) instead of erroring, it remaps the color to grayscales (White = white, light colors = light gray, dark colors = dark gray, dark = dark and so on)
-Dialogue Boxes.
Concept:
DOCUMENTATION
Initializes Glucose, sets the color(monochrome) mode and sets the app title and author. Must be called at the beginning of the program.
-glucose.terminate()
Terminated Glucose and closes the program. [WIP]
-glucose.makeEdgeButton(letter, y-line)
Created a button like a "X" or "_" on the right side on the screen at the specified Y Line. Can be used to create the buttons mentioned above.
-glucose.createMenuBand()
Deprecated.
-glucose.setRibbonBaseColor(color)
Sets the ribbon band background color to color.
.glucose.setRibbonContentColor(color)
Sets the BG Color of the ribbon when it is opened.
-glucose.setRibbonAttribute(internalName, attribute, value)
Sets the attribute "attribute" of the ribbon tab "internalName" to "value".
Used attributes:
baseColor: ribbon base color (Can be set via setRibbonBaseColor(…)
textColor: ribbon text color
openColor color of the currently opened ribbon
startPosition: Where the ribbon tab "starts" (X Coord); don't override this as it screws stuff up
endPosition: Where the ribbon tab "ends" (X Coord); again, don't mess with this
ribbonData: Text in the ribbon
ribbonIcon: WIP
-glucose.drawRibbonContents(internalName)
Draws whatever should show when the ribbon "internalName" is opened, internal use
-glucose.addIcon(internalName, iconTable)
WIP
-glucose.addRibbonContent(internalName, content)
Text to draw inside a ribbon, please bear in mind that ribbon content must be a table with
the keys 1-5, each representing a line on the screen
-glucose.openRibbon(internalName)
Opens the ribbon internalName as if you clicked on it. You'll need this, trust me.
-glucose.fillLineWithCharacters(line, char)
Self-Explanatory. Internal use.
-glucose.createDialogBox(text, title)
Creates a "press ok" box with the title title and the text text, which again, must be a table with every key representing a line on the screen.
-glucose.writeCentered(text, yCoord)
Writes text centered. Simple as that.
To get it, you need EMPaM:
http://www.computerc...960#entry278960
Once you have EMPaM, you need to run
Once you have this, you're set!
Just load using os.loadAPI("/lib/glucose"). No fancy dofile stuff.
Example program:

-Ribbons. You know, the Microsoft-Office-Style ribbons. (Wink wink nudge nudge MS Office in CC coming soon)-Automatically detects if the screen is color or not, and if not (now comes the magic) instead of erroring, it remaps the color to grayscales (White = white, light colors = light gray, dark colors = dark gray, dark = dark and so on)

The thing with gfx Apis is that they Window. I personally think that windowing systems in CC are pretty pointless (at least in the terminal window) So I tried to opt this API to be more Tab-Based. Ther Error messages I talked about in "Features" span across the whole Window, though.DOCUMENTATION
