[easel] Re: [gme-users] Invoking runComponent from GME Addon.

[Jonathan Sprinkle]

Peter,

Is this a possible enhancement to GME? It seems like if the AddOn is running
and waiting for events that there should be *some* way to send an event
externally...after all, the mouse can do it. ;) 

Daniel, 

Maybe for demo purposes we can just have a special interpreter that does
this interfacing (read: generate the event which the addon is listening
for...) and work with Peter to figure out how to generate this through
visual studio's editor later?

I'm a little spotty following this conversation, I'll try to catch up on the
thread this evening....

Jonathan
