Here's what I think is needed next for Comanche:
- An editor (like what I think Je77 is proposing) to make it easier
to browse and edit all the on-disk templates. Currently, it's a
matter of multiple file lists, but it seems that we should be able to
build a browser that's actually aware of the relationships between
book and page actions, etc. and can help you trace them through.
- Some documentation for the administrator and/or developer (more the
former than the latter). The administrator who knows a little HTML
and is willing to deal with a little Squeak could use some help
tweaking the look-and-feel of a site. Also, some examples of
additions to make (e.g., the MATLAB formatting mode that Je77 built,
the Math Equation editor that Joshua built, etc.). If this
documentation explained a bit about actions and what the various
files did, it would be a nice headstart for the developer, too.
