Hello, first of all congratulations for this great project, you have done a great work.
Now, i am very interested in creating a new User Interface for Scratch, a web based one, so i could expose scratch funcionality over a web based enviroment. I would like to use Rich Internet Application Technologies like adobe flex or silverlight for this new User Interface.
Use of MVC (Model View Controller) pattern is very common for web applications, but sometimes is used for creating user interfaces ( see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model%E2%80%93view%E2%80%93controller#GUI_frameworks if interested) .
Following this architectural pattern, it could be easy to change the view from the rest of the functionality , so i wonder if u used a similar pattern for scratch
I wonder if creating a new user interface for scratch ide could be possible. do u think it could be possible?
Excuse my bad english i am not a native speaker
Thank u very much. chao

Hmmm, it could be possible, but the entire program is written is Smalltalk 80, so you would have to have a knowledge of that language to convert it to run in language like flash. (the most likely to work would be Java because smalltalk 80 is what Java is supossedly based off of)

Well, it would even be possible with DHTML!
tedious, albeit, but possible. See this:
