....can express a wider variety of behaviors than interface builders. Demonstrational systems have also proven popular for specifying the dynamic behavior of objects in an application. Examples include systems for creating user interfaces [41, 47, 32, 5] constructing drawings and animating them [18, 19], and creating HyperCard programs [4] These systems record the user s actions on example objects and then play them back at run time when an appropriate event is received. In some cases they attempt to generalize the sequences of actions to provide more abstract behaviors. For example, Demo [47] ....
....the sequences of actions to provide more abstract behaviors. For example, Demo [47] will create linear equations that relate elements of an event (e.g. rotating a dial on a gauge by 30 degrees) with elements of a response (e.g. updating a text box with the new value of the gauge) MetaMouse [18, 19] and Eager [4] try to detect repetitive actions and Lapidary 7 generalize the sequence of actions so that they are performed on all objects in a group. Marquise [32] concentrates on inferring the overall behavior of an application from demonstrations. Inference Bear [5] infers behavior from ....

....Chimera [3] supported graphical histories of operations in a graphics editor, and allowed commands to be selected for scripts, but supported only rudimentary generalizations. There are many previous examples of scripting by demonstration in graphical applications, including Peridot [10] MetaMouse [7], Mondrian [6] Pursuit [9] Gamut [8] etc. but most of these concentrated on inferencing algorithms rather than providing sophisticated controls to users. CONCLUSIONS Topaz allows the user to construct sophisticated scripts by demonstrating the desired commands and then explicitly ....
