Abstract

A description is given of Quill, an extensible document creation system that is organized as a collection of cooperating editors, each with its own set of objects and commands. The objects implemented by the various editors can be nested without restriction, forming a hierarchical document that can be described by the Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML). The user is presented with a 'what you see is what you get' (WYSIWYG) view of the document in which the various objects can be directly manipulated on the display screen. A system shell ensures consistency among the editors and coordinates their foreground and background activities to ensure keystroke responsiveness. Each Quill editor is a programming object that communicate with the shell and with other editors by means of a standard set of procedures. A rigorous specification of the shell/editor interface enables additional editors to be added to the Quill system without affecting the existing editors.<>

羽毛笔:用于编辑混合型文件的可扩展系统

描述了Quill，这是一个可扩展的文档创建系统，它被组织为协作编辑器的集合，每个编辑器都有自己的一组对象和命令。各种编辑器实现的对象可以不受限制地嵌套，形成可以用标准通用标记语言(SGML)描述的分层文档。用户将看到一个“所见即所得”(WYSIWYG)的文档视图，在该视图中，可以在显示屏幕上直接操作各种对象。系统shell确保编辑器之间的一致性，并协调它们的前台和后台活动，以确保击键响应。每个Quill编辑器都是一个编程对象，它通过一组标准过程与shell和其他编辑器通信。shell/编辑器接口的严格规范使其他编辑器可以添加到Quill系统中，而不会影响现有的编辑器。
