This page was written by Pluto and imported with their permission when LinuxMCE branched off in February, 2007. In general any information should apply to LinuxMCE. However, this page should be edited to reflect changes to LinuxMCE and remove old references to Pluto.
Every screen will be stored in a file with SDF extension:

SDF = Screen Definition Page.

Every event called to a child control, will be called to the parent. Events will be parsed by control and if the event is not known, there should be no suitable code, else will call the default action.

Saving informations, set up the wizard defaults.

Control definition:

object ControlName: <ControlType>

       [Propery = Value]
	
       Event: [[[[action1;] action2; ] .... ;] action_n]

[object Child: <Control Type>

<Child definitions>

        End]

end

Every ListBox and Button will be saved to the next page in a list of stored options. Stored informations are next: Page/Control/Option

At $next event, every control will be saved, and at the $previous command every control with current page will be removed.

Command parsing

The command parsing is a stack, which calls a command and remove the command after.

The command: $generate_event push commands in pending state.

Exceptional cases: Following commands will destroy the stack: $next; $previous; CurrentControl.OnClose The next coomand destroy the screen, which clean up the all commands.
