# This is mainly a proof of concept for xorriso serving under a frontend.
# It exercises several fundamental gestures of communication:
# - connecting via two named pipes
# - sending commands
# - receiving replies
# - inquiring the xorriso message sieve
# - using the xorriso parsing service
#
# It also may serve as educational frontend to xorriso which tells by
# its message window how to operate xorriso by commands and what it will
# reply.

# Note that any other language than Tcl/Tk could be used, if it only can
# do i/o via standard input and standard output or via named pipes.
# Further it has to perform integer arithmetics and string manipulations.
# And, well, a graphical widget set would be nice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

The GUI window is separated into three main areas:

- The area for connection to xorriso
  - shows xorriso messages,
  - offers some general activities,
  - displays the \"ready/busy\" state of the connection,
  - and allows to toggle xorriso commands into the \"Command:\" field.

- The area for management of drives and ISO image data files
  - allows to scan for optical drives,
  - to acquire them and load their ISO directory tree,
  - to acquire ISO image files from hard disk as pseudo drives like DVD+RW,
  - to blank CD-RW, DVD-RW DVD+RW, BD-RE and format DVD-RW, BD-R,
  - to trigger writing of ISO sessions (which get defined in the third area),
  - and to burn image data files from hard disk to optical media.

- The area for inspection, manipulation, and exploitation of the ISO model
  - allows to insert directories and files from hard disk into the ISO model,
  - to delete and rename file objects in the ISO model,
  - to verify data files of loaded ISO directory trees by MD5,
  - to extract directories and files from ISO filesystem to hard disk.
  
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
                              Some Use Cases
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Burn a directory as only content onto a CD, DVD or BD
- Write a directory as only content to an ISO image data file on hard disk
- Burn an image data file from hard disk onto CD, DVD or BD
- Add more data to an appendable medium or to an ISO image data file
- Extract a directory tree from an ISO filesystem to hard disk

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

            Burn a directory as only content onto a CD, DVD or BD

- Click the \"Scan for drives\" button in the middle area.
- Select a drive and click the \"Pick output drive\" button.
- If the information field in the \"Output drive/image\" line begins by
  \"appendable\" or \"closed\" and if the medium is CD-RW, DVD-RW, DVD+RW, or
  BD-RE then click the \"Blank\" button to erase the old data.
  (Blanking of \"DVD-RW sequential recording\" will last very long.)
- Go to the \"Insert from disk:\" line in the lower area.
  Either toggle in the address of the hard disk directory,
  or click on the \"/\" button to the right of the text field to get
  a file browser.
- Hit the Return key in the text field or double click on a name in the
  browser to schedule the disk directory for writing to the medium.
  You may of course insert several directories or files that way.
- Close the browser and click the \"Write ISO session\" button in the
  middle area. Confirm in the \"yes/no\" window that pops up.
  Burning will begin (or refuse on unsuitable medium status).
- When the \"busy\" field displays \"ready\" again, you may click \"Eject\".
  Desktop drives should then put out the tray with the medium.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

   Write a directory as only content to an ISO image data file on hard disk

- Go to the text field beside the \"Output drive/image\" button and toggle
  the address of the image file. Click the button or hit the Return key
  when the address is complete.
  Or click on the \"/\" button to the right of the field to get a file browser.
- You may click on a name in the browser and bring it into the text field
  by button \"Edit\".
- When the intended file address is composed, hit the Return key in the
  text field or click the \"Output drive/image\" button.
- If the information field in the \"Output drive/image\" line begins by
  \"appendable\" or \"closed\" then you addressed an existing data file.
  Warning: Applying the \"Blank\" button to it would damage its content !
  You probably do not want this in this special use case.
- Go to the \"Insert from disk:\" line in the lower area.
  Continue like in the above description for CD, DVD, and BD media.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

         Burn an image data file from hard disk onto CD, DVD or BD

- Click the \"Scan for drives\" button in the middle area.
- Select a drive and click the \"Pick output drive\" button.
- If the information field in the \"Output drive/image\" line begins by
  \"appendable\" or \"closed\" and if the medium is CD-RW, DVD-RW, DVD+RW, or
  BD-RE then click the \"Blank\" button to erase the old data.
  (Blanking of \"DVD-RW sequential recording\" will last very long.)
- Go to the text field beside the \"Burn image file:\" button and toggle
  the address of the image file. Or click on the \"/\" button to the right
  of the field to get a file browser.
- Hit the Return key in the text field or double click on a name in the
  browser to initiate the burn run.
  Confirm in the \"yes/no\" window that pops up.
- When the \"busy\" field displays \"ready\" again, you may click \"Eject\".
  Desktop drives should then put out the tray with the medium.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

      Add more data to an appendable medium or to an ISO image data file

- Like above, \"Scan for drives\" but click button \"Pick drive for both roles\"
  in order to load the directory tree of the existing ISO filesystem.
  For an ISO image data file, bring its name into the input fields of both
  lines \"Input drive/image\" and \"Output drive/image\" and activate it
  by clicking both buttons or hitting the Return key in both fields.
  You should now see in both info fields texts which begin by \"appendable\".
- Go to the \"Insert from disk:\" line in the lower area.
  Use the means described in the first use case to add more directories or
  data files.
- If you are interested in \"Delete\" or \"Move to:\" buttons in the
  bottom line of the GUI: Click them by the rightmost mouse button to see
  their help texts.
- When all intended changes are done: Click \"Write ISO session\" and
  confirm in the \"yes/no\" window.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

         Extract a directory tree from an ISO filesystem to hard disk

- Like above, \"Scan for drives\" but click button \"Pick input drive\"
  in order to load the directory tree of the existing ISO filesystem.
  For an ISO image data file, bring its name into the input field of the
  line \"Input drive/image\". You should now see in its info field a text
  which begins by \"appendable\" or \"closed\".
- Go to the \"ISO directory:\" line and list box in the lower area and
  select the directory or file you want to copy to hard disk.
- To get to see the desired file items, either toggle the address of their
  parent directory into the text field and hit Return, or double click items
  to open them as directories, or click the \"/\" button to get a file browser.
  Select the item in the list box of the main window by a single click.
- Go to the \"Extract to disk:\" line and choose the target address on disk.
  Either toggle in the address of the hard disk directory, or click on the
  \"/\" button to the right of the text field to get a file browser.
- Hit the Return key in the text field or double click on a name in the
  browser to initiate the extraction run.
  If a \"yes/no\" window pops up, consider well whether you are up to
  shooting your own foot right now.
  Enable the \"Overwrite hard disk files\" switch only if you are really
  sure that the files from ISO are better than the ones on hard disk.

xorriso-tcltk is mainly a proof of concept for a frontend that operates
xorriso in dialog mode.

It demonstrates some of xorriso's multi-session features with ISO 9660
filesystems on optical media (CD, DVD, BD) or in disk files.

Dependencies:
  xorriso, Tcl language, Tk GUI toolkit, optionally Tcl/Tk package BWidget

"The field between \"End\" button and ready/busy field displays the
version of the serving xorriso program.

xorriso is a program which copies file objects from POSIX compliant
filesystems into Rock Ridge enhanced ISO 9660 filesystems and allows
session-wise manipulation of such filesystems. It can load the management
information of existing ISO images and it writes the session results to
optical media or to filesystem objects.
Vice versa xorriso is able to restore file objects from ISO 9660 filesystems.

xorriso-tcltk-$own_version is mainly a proof of concept for a frontend
that operates xorriso in dialog mode.

It exercises several fundamental gestures of communication:
- connecting via two pipes
- sending commands
- receiving replies
- inquiring the xorriso message sieve
- using the xorriso parsing service

Note that any other language than Tcl/Tk could be used, if it only can
do i/o via standard input and standard output or via named pipes.
Further it has to perform integer arithmetics and string manipulations.
And, well, a graphical widget set would be nice."

The \"Log command script\" switch controls whether the essential xorriso
commands of the GUI session shall be written to the end of a script file
on hard disk. Not written will be the commands by which the GUI inspects
the xorriso state, but only those which set up that state and those which
get sent via the \"Command:\" field.
Commands -osirrox and -extract will be logged only as comments.

The \"Log non-essential commands\" switch controls whether all commands
shall be logged if \"Log command script\" is enabled. Commands
-msg_op \"parse\" and -msg_op \"parse_bulk\" will be logged only as comments.

The item \"Set log script address\" pops up a file tree browser window
which asks for the target of appending to script. Address \"-\" means
standard error. Else it must not yet exist or be a writable data file.

The \"Log pipes\" switch controls whether all xorriso commands and replies
shall be logged to standard error or to the file that has been given
with program argument --pipe_log_file.
Caution: This log is verbous.

The item \"Set pipe log address\" pops up a file tree browser window
which asks for the target of pipe logging . Address \"-\" means
standard error. Else it must not yet exist or be a writable data file.

The item \"Execute command script\" executes the commands in a script
file that should stem from \"Log command script\".
At least it must begin by this line:
# xorriso-tcltk command log script
Be aware that xorriso will slavishly execute those commands. Better check
in advance whether the content of the script file is what you expect.
See man xorriso for the meaning of the commands.

The \"Allow extract to disk\" switch controls whether commands like -extract
are allowed in command scripts. If disabled, then command -osirrox is used
to temporarily block those commands (unless the script unblocks itself, which
would be nasty behavior).

The item \"Permanently ban extraction\" disables -extract irrevocably for
scripts and GUI alike."

to the user of this program. If drives do not show up, then consider to
