TexHelpers are python packages that allow Texioty to do more better things. They can be for playing gaims, sending messages, generating images or audio and more.
There are three primary uses for a TexHelper:
- Mode setter
- Prompt runner
- Widget display
Mode Setter
Texioty is able to switch between several different modes, one at a time. default, diary, questionnaire, gaim and Coop are the first ones to be developed. Each mode decides how texoty and texity will react to input or display some output.
Prompt Runner
A prompt is a set of questions designed to complete a goal or task. A prompt runner is the python package that Texioty uses to know how to ask questions and get responses.
Widget Display
A widget can use buttons, sliders, check boxes, and many other GUI elements to give Texioty some functionality.
