Re: Module name: PDL::WebSocket? (No. )

using PDL's new plugin-based demo system). What would such a module be called? PDL::WebSocket?

What are the existing demos named?

PDL::WebSocket is definitely wrong as is Mojo::WebSocket::PDL... Its like naming your car Batter::Wheels because it uses a battery and wheels.

https://metacpan.org/search?q=pdl+demo says PDL::Demos::BAD_demo

So i says PDL::Demos::Etj_pdl_websocket_awesomeness - watch our big blue marble get zapped by lightning in real time

PDL::Demos::Cartography_Lighting

PDL::Demos::Cartography_Thunderstruck

The point of my post isn't one demo. The module-names of the existing demos aren't really visible, instead the interface is roughly: $ perldl perlDL shell v1.357 [snip] Type 'help' for online help Type 'demo' for online demos Loaded PDL v2.077 (supports bad values) Note: AutoLoader not enabled ('use PDL::AutoLoader' recommended) pdl> demo Use: demo pdl # general demo demo 3d # 3d demo (requires TriD with OpenGL or Mesa) demo 3d2 # 3d demo, part 2. (Somewhat memory-intensive) demo 3dgal # the 3D gallery: make cool images with 3-line scr +ipts demo 3dtk # Tk graphics (requires Tk) demo bad # Bad-value demo (Optional: PGPLOT) demo cartography # Cartographic projections (Req.: PGPLOT) demo gnuplot # Gnuplot graphics demo pgplot # PGPLOT graphics output demo pgplotOO # PGPLOT OO interface demo transform # Coordinate transformations (Req.: PGPLOT) pdl> [download] The point of my post was about a new PDL capability of live updating from (in this case) a websocket. The naming of a demo module for that is not something I was asking for help on ;-) However, while it's not really entirely a Cartography thing (it's as much a 3D, and also live-updating thing - the mash-up/synergy are equally what I want to show off), the name "Thunderstruck" is so good it will definitely be involved - thank you!
