apptools: application tools

===========================

Documentation: http://docs.enthought.com/apptools

Source Code: http://www.github.com/enthought/apptools

The apptools project includes a set of packages that Enthought has found

useful in creating a number of applications.  They implement functionality

that is commonly needed by many applications

- **apptools.io**: Provides an abstraction for files and folders in a file

  system.

- **apptools.logger**: Convenience functions for creating logging handlers

- **apptools.naming**: Manages naming contexts, supporting non-string data

  types and scoped preferences

- **apptools.persistence**: Supports pickling the state of a Python object

  to a dictionary, which can then be flexibly applied in restoring the state of

  the object.

- **apptools.preferences**: Manages application preferences.

- **apptools.selection**: Manages the communication between providers and

  listener of selected items in an application.

- **apptools.scripting**: A framework for automatic recording of Python

  scripts.

- **apptools.undo**: Supports undoing and scripting application commands.

Prerequisites

-------------

All packages in apptools require:

* `traits `_

Certain sub-packages within apptools have their own specific dependencies,

which are optional for apptools overall.

The `apptools.preferences` package requires:

* `configobj `_

The `apptools.io.h5` package requires:

* `numpy `_

* `pandas `_

* `tables `_

The `apptools.persistence` package requires:

* `numpy `_

Many of the packages provide optional user interfaces using Pyface and

Traitsui. In additon, many of the packages are designed to work with the

Envisage plug-in system, althought most can be used independently:

* `envisage `_

* `pyface `_

* `traitsui `_
