Hi all! Getting in lots of family time as I sort out ongoing health issues, but none the less got some neat things to report this month!
Interpreter Panel
Part of Sambuddha’s GSoC project, half my month has gone toward reintroducing nyx’s interpreter and I’m pleased to say it’s turned out great!
Built upon Stem’s tor-prompt this expands upon the capabilities of the last arm release, providing an interactive python interpreter along with updated tor capabilities.
Curses Test Coverage
Concluding a four month overhaul, nyx now has a high degree of test coverage for its curses display capabilities which is good cuz… well, that’s kinda what nyx does. To answer the obvious question no, still no release date but this is a major milestone. Remaining work I have planned includes…
- Refactor nyx’s menu and controller modules.
- Put together a new site for nyx.
- Run an open beta to solicit testing and ideas from our community.
Stem was in the works for two years before its first release. Nyx too will be ready when it’s ready.
