#GMScreen (demo)

GMScreen IS a fully customizable dashboard for tables, lists, and notes targeted at Pencil-and-Paper (or, more likely, computer-pencil-and-paper) RPG game masters, story-tellers, and dungeon-masters.

Besides require.js and the localStorage shim, all code is my own.

##Recent Additions

Some cool features that have recently been added!

###Sort Order Indicators - 12/22

I got tired of guessing which table column I had last sorted by. So I added some sort order indicators to the table headers.

###Dice - 12/22

When editing an item, use roll(dice, flags). Here's what that all means:

dice is, of course, any dice and bonuses you need. Some examples:

• 1d20+5
• 4d6
• 1d8+1d6

flags let you modify how the dice work. It's any combination of the following:

• v – show the results of every die rolled, as well as the total. Will output something like 25 (20) or 16 (5, 2, 3, 6)
• t{number} – this will base the total on a "threshold" number. It will count the number of dice that came up with a result of {number} or better.

Some examples:

• roll(5d6, t5) might output 3 if the dice came up 4, 5, 3, 6, 5
• roll(5d6, vt5) would output 3 [4, 5, 3, 6, 5]

Once a die has been rolled, you'll only see the output when you try to edit that item again.

###Hotkeys - 12/18

The way hotkeys work has been changed to be simpler, and cross-browser. These hotkeys will work any time you're not typing in a text input or a textarea. No modifier keys, and no activation keys.

• Hit w to add a window to the current screen
• Hit s to add a new screen
• Hit Esc to close any modal window

###Local Storage - 12/8

Whenever you do anything it is immediately saved to your browser. This includes:

• Adding a new screen
• Adding a new window
• Moving a window
• Shading a window
• Adding and editing table rows and columns
• Adding and editing list items
• Sorting tables
• Moving list items
• Marking list items and table rows
• Deleting list items and table rows
• Basically anything you do

And, when you return to the page, your changes will be loaded for you.

###Improved marking - 12/8

I've improved the way data is represented in tables and lists, so a marked row or item will remain marked when sorting and moving.

More of these to come eventually!

##Future Features

Awesome stuff that will be available in the future

###Cloud Storage

This will mean that everything that saves in your browser will also (optionally) be stored on a server. You'll be able to switch from device to device and still have access to all your screens, but it will require an account.

###More Hotkeys

Yep.

###Dice

Yep
