Grasp Interpreter for the X Window System
Senior Project: 1991-1992
Dale Barnard, Jeanette Fielden, Thomas Hintz and Brian Reynolds
Grasp is a very popular graphics presentation and animation system for
MS-DOS. It is implemented as a specialized computer language, with variables
and control constructs, along with special commands for doing graphics and
animation. The goal of this project was to implement a Grasp
interpreter that runs under the X Window System. This allows one to develop
presentations and animations on MS-DOS and run them on any UNIX workstation
that supports X Windows.
The project involved the design and implementation of a generic interpreter,
using an object-oriented approach. Grasp specific details were then
incorporated into the interpreter to produce an interpreter for Grasp.
The project was implemented in C, using the X Window System and Motif toolkit.
