This program is no more useful since I discovered the parameter idleexpiretime (from UIScene) that allows to reload the GUI file from disk when closed.

Basically, you set idleexpiretime to a low value (ie 0.1) and then in-game, you just have to close & open the GUI to reload it.

• Check XML syntax & attributes correctness
• Auto reload current file if changed: save the file in your editor to update the view
• Windows/Linux (and OSX?) support, with command line options
• Bugs that need to be fixed

• Handle UIListBox & UIScrollbar
• OnXXX basic function calls (ie UIButton_Input_ShowObject, UIObject_Misc_SetLocalVarString, etc.)
• STRREF support
• Local var support
• UIGrid support
• ...
