[aur-general] How about hashtags in package description?

2009-03-15 Thread Vitaliy Berdinskikh
We have the limited category list.

Sometimes I need accurate description when package can use.

How about to use hashtags like #hamradio etc.

What's the practical difference between a tag and a hashtag?

I thought he was talking about something like tags used in Jabber or Identi.ca 
posts. They are inline and begin with a hash, like that:

I think #Arch #Linux is awesome.

I see people doing this on twitter.
Functionality-wise they are just tags.
the hash ('#') sign in front is to just mark "this is a tag", which is
useful for other tools and scripts to parse/categorize/... content

So it isn't really any more useful than just searching a well written
description eh?



Re: [aur-general] How about hashtags in package description?

2009-03-15 Thread Andrei Thorp
Re: searching descriptions: when searching via description, you're
likely to find descriptions that have whatever keyword you typed, but
not in the scenario you had in mind.

Example:
You searched for "office" and that matches the description
"Game about shooting people at the office"

If instead you had a tag system, searching --tag office would,
presumably, match office applications only. Anyway, this may not be a
tremendously great example, but I think there is somewhat of a point
here.
