Wow these are awesome ideas, thanks! I don't use the web interface much because I'm most often at the CLI anyway and ticgitweb was written by another contributor, but I'll see if I can add these because it would really help mature ticgitweb and make it more usable. At present ticgitweb uses the Sinatra rubygem to operate but to be honest I agree that something that could be run by apache or any regular httpd would be ideal. Thanks for the feedback, it is appreciated! If you think of it, maybe try giving ticgitweb another go in a couple months to see if I've made progress in a direction you like :) Cheers, Jeff. _______________________________________________ dist-bugs mailing list [email protected] http://kitenet.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dist-bugs
