Comment (by jhpalmieri):
Several quick comments and questions:
- First, the combined indices and search are great! At first I thought
that searching was broken, but that's my browser, not the code. I'm still
looking over the patch, but in practice it seems to work.
- This is an old problem: I object to the use of "type" as a global
variable, set by `__main__`. Then I can't use `print type(var)` anywhere
in the rest of the code (as I tried to do when debugging something). I may
change `type` to something else; any suggestions? Perhaps `format` (which
also has a meaning in Python)?
- When we're happy about the patches, I'll try to combine them into just
one or two chunks. Right now, for example, one of my patches creates the
"todolist" directory, and then Florent's patch moves all of the files out
of it, so we end up with an empty directory. I don't know if there are
other similar things which will need cleaning up.
- I get some warnings about missing citations. Should we worry about
those now?
