+\section{Built-in Module \sectcode{fl}}
+\bimodindex{fl}
+
+This module provides an interface to the FORMS Library by Mark
+Overmars, version 2.0b. For more info about FORMS, write to
+{\tt markov@cs.ruu.nl}.
+
+Most functions are literal translations of their C equivalents,
+dropping the initial \samp{fl_} from their name. Constants used by the
+library are defined in module \code{FL} described below.
+
+The creation of objects is a little different in Python than in C:
+instead of the `current form' maintained by the library to which new
+FORMS objects are added, all functions that add a FORMS object to a
+button are methods of the Python object representing the form.
+Consequently, there are no Python equivalents for the C functions
+\code{fl_addto_form} and \code{fl_end_form}, and the equivalent of
+\code{fl_bgn_form} is called \code{fl.make_form}.
+
+Watch out for the somewhat confusing terminology: FORMS uses the word
+\dfn{object} for the buttons, sliders etc. that you can place in a form.
+In Python, `object' means any value. The Python interface to FORMS
+introduces two new Python object types: form objects (representing an
+entire form) and FORMS objects (representing one button, slider etc.).
+Hopefully this isn't too confusing...
+
+There are no `free objects' in the Python interface to FORMS, nor is
+there an easy way to add object classes written in Python. The FORMS
+interface to GL event handling is avaiable, though, so you can mix
+FORMS with pure GL windows.
+
+\strong{Please note:} importing \code{fl} implies a call to the GL function
+\code{foreground()} and to the FORMS routine \code{fl_init()}.
+
+\subsection{Functions defined in module \sectcode{fl}}
+
+Module \code{fl} defines the following functions. For more information
+about what they do, see the description of the equivalent C function
+in the FORMS documentation:
+
+\renewcommand{\indexsubitem}{(in module fl)}
+\begin{funcdesc}{make_form}{type\, width\, height}
+Create a form with given type, width and height. This returns a
+\dfn{form} object, whose methods are described below.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{do_forms}{}
+The standard FORMS main loop. Returns a Python object representing
+the FORMS object needing interaction, or the special value
+\code{FL.EVENT}.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{check_forms}{}
+Check for FORMS events. Returns what \code{do_forms} above returns,
+or \code{None} if there is no event that immediately needs
+interaction.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{set_event_call_back}{function}
+Set the event callback function.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{set_graphics_mode}{rgbmode\, doublebuffering}
+Set the graphics modes.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{get_rgbmode}{}
+Return the current rgb mode. This is the value of the C global
+variable \code{fl_rgbmode}.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{show_message}{str1\, str2\, str3}
+Show a dialog box with a three-line message and an OK button.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{show_question}{str1\, str2\, str3}
+Show a dialog box with a three-line message and YES and NO buttons.
+It returns \code{1} if the user pressed YES, \code{0} if NO.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{show_choice}{str1\, str2\, str3\, but1\, but2\, but3}
+Show a dialog box with a three-line message and up to three buttons.
+It returns the number of the button clicked by the user
+(\code{1}, \code{2} or \code{3}).
+The \var{but2} and \var{but3} arguments are optional.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{show_input}{prompt\, default}
+Show a dialog box with a one-line prompt message and text field in
+which the user can enter a string. The second argument is the default
+input string. It returns the string value as edited by the user.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{show_file_selector}{message\, directory\, pattern\, default}
+Show a dialog box inm which the user can select a file. It returns
+the absolute filename selected by the user, or \code{None} if the user
+presses Cancel.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{get_directory}{}
+\funcline{get_pattern}{}
+\funcline{get_filename}{}
+These functions return the directory, pattern and filename (the tail
+part only) selected by the user in the last \code{show_file_selector}
+call.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{qdevice}{dev}
+\funcline{unqdevice}{dev}
+\funcline{isqueued}{dev}
+\funcline{qtest}{}
+\funcline{qread}{}
+%\funcline{blkqread}{?}
+\funcline{qreset}{}
+\funcline{qenter}{dev\, val}
+\funcline{get_mouse}{}
+\funcline{tie}{button\, valuator1\, valuator2}
+These functions are the FORMS interfaces to the corresponding GL
+functions. Use these if you want to handle some GL events yourself
+when using \code{fl.do_events}. When a GL event is detected that
+FORMS cannot handle, \code{fl.do_forms()} returns the special value
+\code{FL.EVENT} and you should call \code{fl.qread()} to read the
+event from the queue. Don't use the equivalent GL functions!
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{color}{}
+\funcline{mapcolor}{}
+\funcline{getmcolor}{}
+See the description in the FORMS documentation of \code{fl_color},
+\code{fl_mapcolor} and \code{fl_getmcolor}.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\subsection{Form object methods and data attributes}
+
+Form objects (returned by \code{fl.make_form()} above) have the
+following methods. Each method corresponds to a C function whose name
+is prefixed with \samp{fl_}; and whose first argument is a form
+pointer; please refer to the official FORMS documentation for
+descriptions.
+
+All the \samp{add_{\rm \ldots}} functions return a Python object representing
+the FORMS object. Methods of FORMS objects are described below. Most
+kinds of FORMS object also have some methods specific to that kind;
+these methods are listed here.

+\section{Standard Module \sectcode{FL}}
+\nodename{FL (uppercase)}
+\stmodindex{FL}
+
+This module defines symbolic constants needed to use the built-in
+module \code{fl} (see above); they are equivalent to those defined in
+the C header file \file{<forms.h>} except that the name prefix
+\samp{FL_} is omitted. Read the module source for a complete list of
+the defined names. Suggested use:
+
+\bcode\begin{verbatim}
+import fl
+from FL import *
+\end{verbatim}\ecode
+
+\section{Standard Module \sectcode{flp}}
+\stmodindex{flp}
+
+This module defines functions that can read form definitions created
+by the `form designer' (\code{fdesign}) program that comes with the
+FORMS library (see module \code{fl} above).
+
+For now, see the file \file{flp.doc} in the Python library source
+directory for a description.
