NAME
frigg - Mjolner BETA User Interface Builder
SYNOPSIS
frigg
AVAILABILITY
The Mjolner BETA User Interface Builder is available as part
of the Mjolner BETA System from Mjolner Informatics.
DESCRIPTION
Frigg is the user interface builder of the Mjolner BETA Sys-
tem, it aims at supporting rapid prototyping and is meant
primarily for system designers and developers.
Frigg is embedded in Sif - the Mjolner BETA Source Browser
and Editor - and supplies a graphical editor that interacts
with the sif(1) to create a prototyping environment.
The user interface editor lets its users construct the user
interface via direct manipulation, while the necessary code
is generated automatically behind the scene. The generated
code can be extended and tailored using the sif(1) structure
editor, and this tailoring can take place at any time during
the development of the user interface, because the graphical
editor can keep track of the code even though the code has
been altered in the structure editor. The developer can
therefore alternate between working on the user interface
and coding the underlying functionality.
OPTIONS
(none)
ENVIRONMENT
frigg recognizes the environment variable $BETALIB. Please
note that this variable is given default value in the Bourne
Shell script $BETALIB/configuration/env.sh
BETALIB
Specifies where ~beta is located. If not set, beta is
assumed to be a username, and ~beta being the home
directory of that user. Is used by many tools in the
Mjolner BETA System.
