Hi Dag, Thanks for the patch! People have been clamoring for this functionality forever and I have been cruelly not doing it for them.
A few minor comments: Reformatted excerpts from Dag Odenhall's message of 2008-04-25: > + confcolor = $config[:colors][sym.to_s[0..-7].to_sym] rescue nil > + fg = Curses.const_get "COLOR_#{confcolor[:fg].upcase}" rescue fg > + bg = Curses.const_get "COLOR_#{confcolor[:bg].upcase}" rescue bg > + attrs = confcolor[:attrs].map {|a| Curses.const_get "A_#{a.upcase}" } > rescue attrs 1. Can you wrap all this in an if statement, rather than having sequence of post-fix rescue stuff? You could do something like "if(confcolor = $config[...)" and set fg and bg within that. 2. Errors in the color names will be silently ignored. The NameError exception should be caught and turned into a BufferManager.flash and a Redwood::log to inform the user. 3. Since I feel like people will write a lot of these descriptions, I would load in colors from a colors.yaml file instead of from the config file. (I can do this one instead if you're unsure.) -- William <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ sup-talk mailing list sup-talk@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/sup-talk
