non-rtl_support case). What's the best way of going about this ---
both in terms of the GUI presentation, and should there be any further
enforcement in the code, or is it enough if the GUI will take care of it?
I think it should be enough.
OK, good.
2. the actual visual-mode functionality. Currently only Left has been
implemented, Right will more or less mirror it. I hope to get to it in
the next few days, but I figured I might as well get feedback now that
the framework is in place.
Sorry Dov, this is an area I am interested in but I don't have the time
to properly review your patches. Just a stylish issue: I just had a
quick glance at the code and I noticed that you almost never make use of
the "return early" idiom. Just in case, I will explain what this is about:
Bad style:
if (foo) {
return false;
} else {
bar;
return true;
}
Good Style:
if (foo)
return false;
bar;
return true;
Please try to make those corrections before you commit.
Thanks, I'll look into this and see what I can do about it.
Debug printouts --- I'd like to leave them in for future debugging.
How do I add, and make use of, a debug category for them (or is there
an existing category which I should use)?
What about RTL? i.e. instead of 'lyxerr << xxx' you should use
'LYXERR(Debug::RTL, xxx)'
Great, thanks!
Abdel.
