Hi Jürgen, >> If I could have a wish in this area then it would be to allow for an >> infrastructure which would have at least the same functionality as the >> current Snippet infrastructure (syntax highlighting, embedded links, >> systematic description of the snippet including its version number, good >> overview and navigation among the snippets at all times). > feel free to help here ;-) Just a little note here: for another project I was confronted with Wiki limitations that do *not allow for* forms and input fields, scripts, or database-driven creation of content. (It was about a database-maintained test-unit management system, listing groups to test, allowing to get to see individual items that need testing, showing which test cases/units exist already by whom for which test items, allowing the reader to indicate interest to supply test cases/units for the listed test items. The final solution was to have a short documentation as a Wiki document with external links to classic HTML-pages with forms and the like.)
Of course, if I can help here, I would do so (or try to motivate students to take on that task). But for doing so, I would need a perspective that the desired functionality could be really supplied by a Wiki. OTOH, at the moment a pure Wiki for creating and sharing documents with information and scripts is sufficient enough for allowing anyone to submit/supply nutshell examples. Having "only" the examples is arleady sufficient, *if* lots of them come in. Suggesting a common set of information/structure with such posts would be needed upfront, if you want to be able to process them maybe later programmatically (e.g. trying to figure out links to the IDL, automatically executing the scripts, etc.). ---rony --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
