Yorick is an interactive programming language for scientific computing that includes scientific visualization functions, and text and binary I/O functions geared to millions of numbers.

This plug-in allows using GObject-introspection. [https://developer.gnome.org/gi/unstable/index.html]: https://developer.gnome.org/gi/unstable/index.html

In turn, this allows writting Gtk graphical user interfaces directly in Yorick.

As of now, this is in an early development phase. std::dislaimer appplies.

For building, you need to the library libgirepository and its header files. This library gives access to the so called GObject introspection repository. The Makefile uses pkg-config to find the headers etc., make sure pkg-config can find gobject-introspection-1.0.pc or edit the Makefile appropriateley. Then:

yorick -batch make.i make make install

You need the typelib files for the library you want to access. For instance, under Debian GNU/Linux, to build Gtk 3.0 interfaces, you need the package: gir-1.2-gtk-3.0.
