Re: [Factor-talk] Dollar amounts
The command line listener does not have keybindings for history or searching, you can get that two ways: 1) using ``rlwrap ./factor`` which has the effect of adding history and emacs ctrl-a/k/d/n/p keybindings 2) using ``./factor -run=readline-listener`` which has a per-session history, emacs keybindings, and adds tab completion similar to the UI listener. The UI listener implements history support in ``ui.tools.listener.history``, and it would probably be pretty easy to implement saving and loading of history similar to how readline does it, if anyone wants a project :-) On Wed, Sep 3, 2014 at 10:42 AM, mr wzrd wzr...@gmail.com wrote: On 09/03/2014 11:39 AM, John Porubek wrote: On Wed, Sep 3, 2014 at 4:20 AM, mr wzrd wzr...@gmail.com wrote: Speaking of which, does the listener support command history?

Re: [Factor-talk] Dollar amounts
Was thinking about the fact that some GUI's are wrappers around an existing command-line utility. On linux, brasero and cdrecord are one example. Then was thinking about man pages and the fact that some have been converted from their original text format to html. Maybe there is a next step for man pages? What if we created a sort of interactive man page that included each different argument, with its description, and a textbox to enter a value. Each command would have a list arguments, and a submit button at the end that outputs a functional command, and possibly executes it. Then, with a web-browser, there would be a graphical front-end for every terminal command on a linux system, even without installing any rich-client-type GUI's. The same could possibly be done for words in Factor. If I'm not mistaken, current Factor documentation is generated from source. Imagine that there were a utility that takes a Factor word and outputs an html page with inputs and outputs, provided that both input and output are strings. Then writing a simple web app would be as simple as defining a new word.
