Re: [U2] Code Collaboration
So, I thought what the original poster was getting at was: 1) Create a documentation/wiki/example site 2) Make it searchable 3) Have useful examples that make sense to everyone 4) Also post the vendor/var docs 5) Collaborate on ideas (like we do here) Maybe you guys are talking about something else... Github, svn, cvs, PRC and all those are great tools, but, they probably aren't going to create the Wikipedia of the MV world. The above can be done, but, it needs to become a living/breathing thing that gets updated a lot, otherwise, folks won't use it. Hence the challenge- making it a living/breathing thing. I know this kind of thing has been tried, and is being tried... but there probably isn't enough flag waving and marketing to keep it going. Or people create something, and try to make it subscription based, which in this day and time is never going to work with something like the above. Some of the things I know about are: http://www.nuwiki.com/cgi-bin/nuwiki.cgi?homeproject=nuwiki http://www.keyally.com/prdb/universe/basic_tree_all.html http://www.pickwiki.com/cgi-bin/wiki.pl Anyway, I'd like to help with something like that. I'm just not sure at my stage in life, that I have the time to spearhead it and become the chief Architect of something like that.

Re: [U2] Code Collaboration
As the OP, I like the idea of a wiki, provided it can either use straight HTML, use MediaWiki markup (which is slightly different), or use a WYSIWIG like sites.google.com or pbwiki uses. I find that only a few of these have gained sufficient traction that most gearheads know how to use them, the other competitors are just more headaches. Make it searchable. Sure. I assume that any web pages are searchable. You have to actively make something not searchable AFAIK. Useful examples - hopefully. Make sense to everyone - probably not as possible. But anything that doesn't make sense, you'd be able to markup I didn't address docs, but sure why not. Collaborate - that's the main point of my message really.

Re: [U2] Code Collaboration
In order to realize this vision, does every solution have to be implemented in PICK? If the goal is to make our development tasks more efficient it is making sure the labor that one of us puts in is not reproduced by another, i.e. Pick syntax files for various tools. The collaboration point whether it is pickwiki or another, does not have to host the code, but pointers to the places where the resource can be maintained properly. An example is the MAKEXML program on the wiki. I have used that many times and I seriously appreciate ECL and KRJ for making it available. Is it perfect, not really, every time I use it, I get the docstring twice. The wiki is not the way to communicate that it needs a patch. If I did (which I should) fix my copy, who do I communicate it to? We also need to let people know under what license we post the code under. Can I put MAKEXML up on my github and patch it, giving attribution to ECL and KRJ?

Re: [U2] Code Collaboration
FYI - PickWiki does have an RSS feed. Also, have any of you considered Brian's U2 User wiki/website? The wiki has a WYSIWYG editor, and the website has forums. And the site may already have an RSS feed or email notifications. But let's face it, nobody's going to change or tweak your program code just because they can. If your code is useful to them, then they might download and use it. And in the slim chance they make an improvement that they think might make a difference to someone else's life, they might make the time to post their mod. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of software projects publicly available that no one takes any interest in -- why should a PICK project be any different? Sure, code snippets get discussed and rewritten here, but that's because it is a snippet, not a complete program. This is not a tool or convenience problem. Most people are simply not inspired to share what they know; those that are inspired are already sharing.

Rex I have to disagree that no one's interested. I'm interested, and I think there are others who are as well. Whether or not we've all going to be interested in a new text editor, or a faster sort routine, or a BASIC tool to parse XML that remains to be seen.

Most people are simply not inspired to share what they know; those that are inspired are already sharing. That's a realistic, if somewhat cynical view. It doesn't seem unreasonable for those who are inspired to give it a shot and see what happens. Personally, I think the question how best to collaborate on code is a solved problem: http://github.com. A wiki is not the complete answer to the question, though it can play a part. There have been many, many, attempts over the years (from BIX to usenet to U2users) to do a pick version of gnu. Maybe the time is finally right for it to work?

Re: [U2] Code Collaboration
I wasn't saying that no one's interested, but rather those that are interested are already doing something to collaborate and contribute. You got your knol thing going, Tony has got his blog, Steve's got his GH and BB, and so on. A lack of tools isn't going to stop someone that's inspired to share.

Re: [U2] Code Collaboration
That's not collaboration though. It's contribution sure, but writing and blogging and so on, don't really invite tweaking. Something more along the line of a Google Groups, with embedded documents as well. Yes I might tweak your u2pipe program if I had any idea where it was AND if it sent me an email like Rex has just updated this program -Original Message- From: Rex Gozar rgo...@gmail.com To: U2 Users List u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Sent: Fri, Nov 18, 2011 12:38 pm Subject: Re: [U2] Code Collaboration I wasn't saying that no one's interested, but rather those that are nterested are already doing something to collaborate and contribute. ou got your knol thing going, Tony has got his blog, Steve's got is GH and BB, and so on.

[U2] Question about UniVerse indexes...
Hi, I'm trying to find a command at TCL or in BASIC that will provide a list of UV indexes. LIST.INDEX truncates the dictionary id. I know back on Prime Information you could use SELECTINDEX to get a list of indexes, or indexed values, depending on how you used the function. I'm having trouble finding a similar function... Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Tom Whitmore RATEX Business Solutions ___ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
Re: [U2] Question about UniVerse indexes...
I believe LIST.INDEX is just a basic program in the BP file (uv account) - you may find some info there.
