[preview] Merlin Screenshots

An application from Tig4 and Alilm

I decided its time you guys saw some proper screenshots of Merlin and what sorta features it has. Its probably gonna see a release around mid summer, hopefully sooner. At the moment Im completely recoding the Amazon channel to make it real cool. All the channels really need a little work and redesigns, its all in your interest.

Google searching for Firefox...the green cell has been clicked

Master's work , as always!

You rock , al :rock:

Just out of curiosity, does it have its own html parser or mozilla engine ?

#174746

A few questions answered:

There are plans to have an eBay channel by release date as well as a few other smaller ones.

Just out of curiosity, does it have its own html parser or mozilla engine ?

The app contains its own html and xml parsing classes, that Tig4 wrote mostly.

Thanks to all for your extremely kind comments!

sherlock, in a sense.... although, it's not emulating, it's a completely different interface.

#174843

Hey, how about an Aqua-soft channel? :D

Or probably Watson, which for me seems similar to sherlock -_-Watson

Anyways, Merlin is looking fantastic and as a non-US resident I (humbly) wish for is international support, but I am sure that, it'll come along :cheers:

I am also a no us citizen, so internalization is coming. It already works in the weather channel, but im trying to make it even easier thatn typing in a weather.com code.

When Tig4 gets home from abroard and I finish exams i.e. beginning of July we're going to work alot faster on Merlin.

Thanks to Razua we also have a shiny new logo :) thanks man.

Hey guys Im glad you all like the screenshots, ya right now I am overseas and alilm is busy with his tests so developement has kinda slowed but please be assured that it is not a dropped project, we want this app to be as professional as possible and we are doing everything in the best interests of you guys. :)

And for those that asked yes there will be an ebay channel incorporated, keep in mind this is version 1.0 so we are getting some very basic channels out of the way for you guys to play with, we are "streamlining" (wow i sound so corporate) the whole project to make channel developement as quick as possible so once we get the first release oujt the door, we can be releasing channels left and right.

I'm sure you guys will love it.

P.S. I LOVE THE NEW LOGO! THNX!!
