Greetings,
Since you guys seem to be at an impasse, how about this:
1) Set up a page here at JALLIB that references every JAL project,
library, etc, that we know of-- just a link and a brief description.
2) I don't think we should forbid someone who may want to take on the
role of 'librarian' or 'editor' to bring existing JAL libraries into
compliance with JALLIB conventions. It can be a great way to learn
about a subject they are interested in, and also learn the finer
points of working within the JALLIB repository itself. I don't view it
as 'dirty work' at all. I view it as apprenticeship. It is wonderful
to have a program that works, and refine it to conform, but not break
its function.
3) So, we could have a list of 'interesting' JAL libraries in need of
a helper / coder/ maintainer.
Personally, while I like JAL, the fact is, it has a rather small
following. In my opinion is a real shame that we can let ourselves be
divided over coding conventions.
Seb- How's it coming with Antlr? Maybe we could do a JAL to JALLIB
translator?

ps: How do I teach the Vim editor that JAL=3 spaces, and Python=4
spaces? :-)
Try this in your .vimrc
These are are for JAL
augroup jal
au!
au FileType jal syntax on
au FileType jal set tabstop=3 smartindent tw=72
" autocmd FileType jal set comments=sr:/*,mb:*,ex:*/
augroup END
" And these are are for python
augroup python
au!
au FileType python syntax on
au FileType set tabstop=4 expandtab tw=72
" autocmd FileType python set comments=sr:/*,mb:*,ex:*/
augroup END
