Um... Not sure where I was going here. Oh yeah! Command expansion is intended as a form of abbreviation. This may clash with some command names now and in the future, but if we're careful about the command names we choose, this should be minimized. If anything, aliases are useful to break-in CVS users to the Monotone world, and they will continue to be useful. Perhaps this is a lua configurable feature to request: command aliasing. Another point about scripting. One shouldn't be using command aliases or substrings in a script anyway. This would be Bad Scripting(TM). ;-) -- Chad Walstrom <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.wookimus.net/ assert(expired(knowledge)); /* core dump */ _______________________________________________ Monotone-devel mailing list Monotone-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/monotone-devel
