It is 1 year and 8 months that I have started designing semantic
triplets in PostgreSQL database, today I started finally polishing the
database table design and playing with it.
The more I am playing with semantic triplets the more I get idea that
it is feasible to make a program in Emacs that will make programs by
using visual interface with semantic triplets.
I am more and more thinking that it could be possible:
- by using simplest associations, such as subject, predicate, object
- that user could ontologically create basic relations (or have same
defaults) between various subjects, objects; I call them now
"sobjects".
- that user could define higher level form or database definitions, by
defining what has to be asked, what has to be recorded, without
modifying the underlying actual database table
- that by program executing such definitions, user could be creating
new functionality automatically, and
- that new applications could get into existence by using visual,
relationship based, programming in Emacs;
- and without programming Emacs Lisp, only by clicking and defining
relations between objects
Various levels of visual programming idea:
------------------------------------------
1. Underlying PostgreSQL or other database design is what I consider
low level;
2. Emacs Lisp program is low level dealing with the database;
3. Emacs Interface to semantic triples would be higher level
programming;
4. Once triplets are defined, the Emacs Lisp program (2) would know
how to run the application;
Demonstration of (3) playing with semantic triplets:

If not for complex programs, then I can see with blur possibility of
designing any kind of structured information, such as:
- Contact management with all possible relationships, to mothers,
fathers, associates, etc. freely
- Notes applications like the one of Andrew Hyatt, of various types,
and how user wish and want by visual interactive design
- Invoices, receipts, inventory, sales
What I don't know is if the idea with visual programming feasible.
