Well.... there's a perfect API reference on the Web to help you learn the library. Why would you need to sniff the source code?

I mean, unless you're part of the Core team, you should not worry about it... I mean, I'm merely an active member, and did propose a few enhancements sometimes, and apart from reading the code just to contemplate the way these guys did it (so I could mimic the code-style in my own app for consistency), or to re-implement a method to best suite my need, I never really found the purpose to re-format the indentation etc. If you don't feel confortable with how the source code is formatted, I suggest you spend some more time reading it... just like with anything; at some point, you'll understand it better ;) Other than that, Ctrl+F does a great job (just make sure to check the "Case sensitive" box). I personally view all my js files with Notepad2 or SciTe, so I have brace-matching and other nice features that regular Notepad doesn't offer. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prototype: Core" group.
