The Site Construction Power Tool

WebLord's Future

The following is a short list of just some of the features that are planned (or being considered) for WebLord. If you have strong opinions about any of them (or items not listed here) please feel free to email me!

  • Graphic User Interface (GUI) (2.0)
  • More powerful (boolean) expressions for the 'if' property (2.0)
  • A set-oriented debugging method, instead of level-oriented, for finger debugging control (2.0)
  • Improved Workbench support (recognize project icon arguments) (2.0)
  • Enhanced recursion detection and related problem diagnostics (2.0)

When will the next version of WebLord be available?

WebLord Professional (v2.0 with GUI) has a planned release date of April 1998. Announcements will be made by email to all who have purchased WebLord.

What about the PowerPC-Amiga?

I plan to purchase a PowerPC expansion board for my Amiga. When that happens, I will produce a PowerPC version of WebLord.

Important Notes

In order for WebLord's future graphical user interface (GUI) to provide you with powerful, object-oriented drag-and-drop construction of web sites it is necessary to prepare you early for some naming conventions that WebLord will begin to use.

Starting with WebLord 1.2...

  • Do not use a leading ^ (caret) in any of your object identifers or property names,
  • Do not use objects or properties that have a leading ^ (caret) in their name, as these are considered private and may change without notice,
  • Avoid, if possible, the built-in IMAGE type: it will continue to be supported as-is, but all future enhancements in this direction will be made through the html-image object defined in the "html-image.wl" file that you can include and employ now (or build your own.)
