Do any of you know a utility for editing a V7 nodelist, which
comes with the source.

Uh, not sure about that... I'd been looking for something like that myself. Wish the BONK source code was out there.

Hm, was the source "officially" lost? Did already anybody try to contact the author and ask for it?

You might also check out Binkley (dunno about source though).

It might be easier to write the software by your self. First get the
sources, which might be written in Pascal, then port it.. Kinda a big work..
GK: > The extended edition BTXE is available on SourceforgeYou might also check out Binkley (dunno about source though).
If you can find any Opus source code look for Oman (Bonk is a
subset of Oman).

As much as I can remember the interface and the handling of colours
on the screen I'm pretty sure it is Pascal. However, fpk does a
quite decent job on such things.
On the other hand, reinventing the
wheel gives you the opportunity to choose a language that is more widespread nowadays.

This way, my Pascal is pretty rusty, so I would even not think of
porting it, if I did get the source.

Indeed, C/C++ might be a good choice.. C++ is just annoying me. :-)

Binkley was mentioned on an Opus info page concerning the V7
Nodelist. Whether it will Edit is unknown ... I spend a fair amount
of time Online looking for things <g> and will keep an eye out.

I think it won't be too hard, as there isn't much happening on the
screen. No access to mouse, no graphics and so on. "Normal" code,
file ops and so on are relatively good supported by fpk.

Nodelist access calls for a scripting langugage nowadays (imho of
course :-). Ruby, Perl, Python or something like this...

That's right.. But do anyone have contact with the author?

I really don't like scripting for those perpuses, a program written
in C might be more effective in that way.
Hello All!
Do any of you know a utility for editing a V7 nodelist, which
comes with the source.
Something simulear to Bonk.

While you are looking for source for BONK, also look for Son of
Bonk (SOB).
I'm not sure if SOB had source distributed..... Just
another angle I'm thinking of.
If you can find any Opus source code look for Oman (Bonk is a
subset of Oman).
You might also check out Binkley (dunno about source though).
I'm running BTXE, is there something provided in the old Binkley?
