There are big problems with such an approach: - Sharing/diffing .leo (xml) files is not easy. - The sentinels would be encoded as an xml attribute, including escapes. - There would be no easy way of creating a database that associates (public) files with sentinels files. Indeed, people rarely share .leo files for these very reasons. Edward -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
