      1 """Switchboard class.
      2 
      3 This class is used to coordinate updates among all Viewers.  Every Viewer must
      4 conform to the following interface:
      5 
      6     - it must include a method called update_yourself() which takes three
      7       arguments; the red, green, and blue values of the selected color.
      8 
      9     - When a Viewer selects a color and wishes to update all other Views, it
     10       should call update_views() on the Switchboard object.  Note that the
     11       Viewer typically does *not* update itself before calling update_views(),
     12       since this would cause it to get updated twice.
     13 
     14 Optionally, Viewers can also implement:
     15 
     16     - save_options() which takes an optiondb (a dictionary).  Store into this
     17       dictionary any values the Viewer wants to save in the persistent
     18       ~/.pynche file.  This dictionary is saved using marshal.  The namespace
     19       for the keys is ad-hoc; make sure you don't clobber some other Viewer's
     20       keys!
     21 
     22     - withdraw() which takes no arguments.  This is called when Pynche is
     23       unmapped.  All Viewers should implement this.
     24 
     25     - colordb_changed() which takes a single argument, an instance of
     26       ColorDB.  This is called whenever the color name database is changed and
     27       gives a chance for the Viewers to do something on those events.  See
     28       ListViewer for details.
     29 
     30 External Viewers are found dynamically.  Viewer modules should have names such
     31 as FooViewer.py.  If such a named module has a module global variable called
     32 ADDTOVIEW and this variable is true, the Viewer will be added dynamically to
     33 the `View' menu.  ADDTOVIEW contains a string which is used as the menu item
     34 to display the Viewer (one kludge: if the string contains a `%', this is used
     35 to indicate that the next character will get an underline in the menu,
     36 otherwise the first character is underlined).
     37 
     38 FooViewer.py should contain a class called FooViewer, and its constructor
     39 should take two arguments, an instance of Switchboard, and optionally a Tk
     40 master window.
