renaming files/folders in `gsp_core`

[jeromeetienne]

During last conference call, some people expressed we could/should renamed files/folders, let discuss it here

Current folders

• ./gsp_core/core
• ./gsp_core/visual
• ./gsp_core/io
• ./gsp_core/transform

[jeromeetienne]

Here is some personal impressions

• moving ./visual/visual.py to ./core/visual.py
  • thus gsp_core/visual contains all the visuals
• renaming ./io/ansi.py, ./io/text.py, ./io/json.py, ./io/mkdocs.py into ./io/formats/ folders
  • thus ./io/formatscontains all the possible format of commands
• renaming ./io/ansi.py to ./io/tty.py ./io/terminal.py to express it is for displaying on terminal (using escape colors)
  • thus it avoids the confusion with ./io/text.py

Looks good! I'd suggest to rename io to something else, to avoid confusion with built-in module io. Could be fileio, io_utils, etc.

[jeromeetienne]

@rossant good point, what about command_io ?

[rossant]

or commands?

[jeromeetienne]

or commands?

works for me

I'm confused with the move folders syntax. I was thinking of something like:

gsp
  + core
     - data.py
     - buffer.py
     - canvas.py
     - viewport.py
     - object.py
     - types.py
  + visual
     - visual.py
     - ...
  + transform
     - transform.py
     - ...
  + protocol
    - command.py
    - convert.py
    + formats
      - json.py
      - ...

gsp-matplotlib
  + core
  + visual
  + transform
  + interface

interface is for all the backend specific stuff to handle user interaction (mouse, keyboard)
