HTML is not "complete" enough? What do you want to do (or for that matter what does any other wiki system do) that you can't do (in a more "standard" way, I should add) with HTML? The philosophy of Fossil Wiki is to provide simple and common wiki-style markup to accomplish 90% of what you need, then allow the use of HTML for the other 10%. HTML is seen as superior to increasingly arcane Wiki formatting for the complicated stuff because (1) most programmers already know HTML so there is nothing new to learn, (2) HTML is a standard, and (3) HTML allows you to do just about whatever you want to do in a web browser - it is "complete". You can disagree with the design choice here. But please distinguish between a lack of understanding and a disagreement. > > > Eric> > & email interface for the tracker > > Eric> I don't know if it has a name but there seems to be a law that > Eric> once a software product is sufficiently popular people want it to > Eric> do everything, i.e. they want it to be a platform. > > My mistake... > > s/email/cli/g > > I believe it's reasonable to expect that in distributed tracker once > can create tickets via cli while being offline and push to the > 'central' repo when online. > The "fossil ui" command lets you do exactly that. I use Fossil daily for work on SQLite. I normally enter and/or edit tickets off-line (using the "fossil ui" command) then push them up to the servers later. This is the standard way of working with Fossil. I am sorry that you were left with the impression that one had to be online and connected to a server to work with Fossil tickets. I thought the documentation was reasonably clear on the point that tickets and wiki could be edited offline. Perhaps I can find a way to make it clearer. > > Excuse me for creating unnecessary disturbance... > > > Sincerely, > Gour > > -- > > Gour | Hlapicina, Croatia | GPG key: F96FF5F6 > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > _______________________________________________ > fossil-users mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users > > -- --------------------- D.
