Voldenet calm4x0F: there's "toggle theme" on the bottom of the docs, but #raku-doc is the place 08:38

wayland Do we have a Raku module for filling in forms on the command line? Mainly I want to ask a series of questions, but if there's a form setup, that's even better. 21:59
antononcube 🤔 Brian Duggan had a module that can provide the questions interaction. (I think…) 22:02
wayland That'll be raku.land/zef:bduggan/Terminal::UI . I also found raku.land/zef:japhb/Terminal::Widgets . I was just wondering if people had recommendations, caveats, or other options. 22:04

wayland [Coke]: Thanks! I'll try that if it turns out to be more suited to my needs than the other two. 22:05
antononcube I tried raku.land/zef:bduggan/Terminal::UI , and had plans to use it. 22:06
wayland .tell lizmat I noticed that I missed a comment of yours on 9th May in the #mugs channel. You asked me "Do you think the design of App::Mi6 prohibits all the features you'd like to see added?" My answer is that I've been working on a module that allows you to pass in a command and on object on the command line, and then it turns that into a method call on an object. It's intended to be a more complicated version of MAIN in a way. 22:15
tellable6 wayland, I'll pass your message to lizmat

Voldenet I remember using Prompt and line completions in Linenoise were kind of tough to use because of native code callbacks 22:37
You get errors and warnings in form "no handler defined in native callback" or something like that 22:38
> Unhandled exception: No exception handler located for warn at SETTING::src/core.c/control.rakumod:267 22:41
> 22:42
or > An unhandled exception occurred in a native callback. This situation is not recoverable, and the program will terminate.
it's ok as long as you don't do dynamic completions subroutines

wayland Good to know. 22:51
Voldenet it's a bit better than raw input, but probably not good fit for form 22:52
otoh Terminal::Widgets is very css-esque (uses box model), so it might be more familiar 22:53
…unless you don't know css, then it's just weird :)
wayland Yeah, I'm thinking Terminal::Widgets is the go at the moment :) 23:08
