Re: ESL, will it ever get anywhere?
(In reply to Chris Burch)
Chris, feel free to do this if you want, all I ask is not to use ESL or the name
Euphoria Standard Library.
The point behind the ESL (and it's biggest fault so far) is that anyone can
propose stuff and we'd agree on everything as a group. I'm sure if Chris Cuvier
(the other person who's really into this) or I did it with our word as law we'd
be done by now but we wanted to allow the community to contribute with
everything. Sadly, this has caused much delay along with Real Life getting in the
way occasionally.
You have the freedom to do this if you want. However, honestly, I'd prefer you
didn't since we hope to get everything started full throttle soon (we mean it
this time!) and we were hoping to have everything unified, standardized, and full
documented. I think lack of uniformity would be the biggest issue. Our naming
conventions were made to fit with Euphoria's current scheme whereas with your
method you could get stuff like "esl_iGetKey" and then have
"esl_process_keystroke" in the same file which could throw off many users.
