Re: Experiment Generation in perl

in reply to Experiment Generation in perl

DirectX is overkill here, use just any simple GUI. For example perl+Tk, or may be simple Tk, because:

DirectX has no good bindings to Perl (AFAIK), you will need a lot of C coding, and probably such soultion could be better written in C at all.
DirectX is not portable

with the timing issues brought up earlier in the thread it seems like Tk might be hard to get good button-press timings. i have a thought that SDL might be usefull. SDL being a C binding to whatever sub-libs providing a popular cross platform game development layer. it might be a good way to minimalize things. screen, timing and font and joystick functions all in one place.
