Here is my own summary of the sprint. Terry and Kent may have different views.
All three of us have difficulties remembering and/or understanding all the cool things that Leo can *already* do. One remedy would be demo videos of cool plugins, embeddable within Leo itself. Newbies would benefit from a set of YouTube videos describing how to find text, execute scripts, including @button scripts, use the minibuffer, including tab completion, and use @file and @auto nodes. Other videos might describe more advanced features. Terry worked on an a tool that would take a serious of screenshots within Leo. I'll probably just buy a commercial screencasting program. I'm leaning towards Camtasia Studio--it promises high quality with minimal fuss. Given the importance of this project, the cost is entirely negligible. Kent and Terry worked on something that Kent has long wanted: timestamps for each nodes. They were still working on a timestamps plugin when I left for home. This will give Kent something useful to play with without having to modify Leo's file format in any way. To support this work, I fixed some bugs in leoTree.select and its helpers. This is difficult code: we joked that the effect of the sprint would be that we all would move to vim. This morning I realized the code should be revised again. I'll push the new code (with a public warning about the change) when I test it further. Saturday morning we watched "git as a NoSQL database": https://vimeo.com/44458223 My take-away conclusion is that getting the best features of git and DB's is impossible even for those who know much more than I. Kent's time-stamps should give him enough to have him play with nodes as key/value pairs. That's about it, aside for lots of jokes and laughter. I hope Terry will post the goofy pictures of us three sitting around a dining room table filled with computers...
