Re: VBA???

There is a tutorial with examples on the Quanta site with our downloads. In a nutshell it's a graphical dialog builder based on Qt Designer. The twist is that it allows you to "associate text" with it's widgets. So a button could gather up text from the widgets in a dialog and assemble a string which it could sent to stdout or via DCOP, as an example of what it can do. It can also script natively in shell scripting (bash) and load and run other scripts like Perl or Python. All of this combines to make it very powerful while being relatively simple compared to language based tools.

I'll attach an example. If you have Quanta 3.1 or greater installed on your system you can run Kommander files with the command "kmdr-executor [path/]filename" or edit them with the command "kmdr-editor [path/]filename"
