I was hoping to avoid this for the first release, but the use of open in
labs is going to be a nuisance.
I have taken to heart (so far) the rule strongly favored by some web
programmers that opening windows/tabs with javascript is a bad bad thing.
That is, windows/tabs should only be opened by explicit user actions that
cause the browser to open a new window/tab. I have taken this to mean that
the user must click a link (with ctrl/shift as they wish). The use of open
is a bit contrary to this.
I wonder if the following definition of open would be of interest:
open_z_=: 3 : 0
t=. ('jijs?mid=open&path=',jpath y)jhref_jhs_ y
jhtml'<div contenteditable="false">',t,'</div>'
)
Sentence
open'~temp/foo.ijs'
puts a link to open the file in the jijx window.
Comments?
