Pad++
Pad++ is a general-purpose substrate for creating and interacting with structured information based on a zoomable interface. It adds scale as a first class parameter to all items, as well as various mechanisms for navigating through a multiscale space. It has several efficiency mechanisms which help maintain interactive frame-rates with large and complicated graphical scenes. While Pad++ is not an application itself, it directly supports creation and manipulation of multiscale graphical objects, and navigation through spaces of these objects. It is implemented as a widget in Tcl/Tk which provides an interpreted scripting language for creating zoomable applications. The standard objects that Pad++ supports are colored text, graphics, images, portals, and hypertext markup language (HTML). Standard input widgets (buttons, sliders, etc.) are supplied as extensions.
