Follow-up Comment #18, patch #5893 (project mc): is there a interface that is able to handle external access - like plugins but i dont want runtime loading. some stable interfaces that someone could access to create such functionality? spellcheck, image preview - program execution that can manipulate the userinterface, dialogs... it is obvious that some functionality can be archieved in .net or java much more effective than in c, but the ones with the time and idea to build that in java might not even be able to do C. a hex editor with content manipulation for exploits ala metasploit could be a weekend in python but a painfull month in plain c. right, if everything is commited without rules of management anything will happen. what are that rules? pseudo edit the patches, add comments dont compile but send it back. the next version might be more of your taste.
this kind of feature should be part of a filemanager and should provide a consistent behaviour with the available gui. is there a ebuild for this patches, should i create one? as long as nothing is commited into the cvs it might be from use if you and others can test the custom mc in production, by just installing a new unstable version. there will be more feedback about the feature ~3w peace _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?5893> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/ _______________________________________________ Mc-devel mailing list http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc-devel
