Re: Libraries To Contribute
Stuff we need to do for this project: 1) Decide on the structure when you hit git. I think that we should have the routines be separate depos because it will be easier for everyone to subproject what they want. 2) Extract and format the docs for each piece 3) Build the wiki for it that will reference each piece.

Very true - I wasn't thinking of links, and I didn't even think of trying to do it with the command-line. I would like it to be cross-platform - at least for desktops, but that's a good idea.

It's pretty easy, actually. You can check out my repo, if you like, because that's where I'd put the routines if I do it. I've already got some community routines in there, but I haven't gone nuts with it, yet. https://github.com/macMikey The biggest thing to discuss is what routines should be grouped together into the same script file and which script files should be part of the same repo. More repos means more flexibility, but it also means that people are having to pull more code, if something ever changes.

Guys, I would love to get the contents of the Master Library into github, but that is beyond my technical ability. I created the library so I had 1) an index/table of contents and 2) the ability to only pull into my projects what I needed. I also wanted to give back to the people on this list that had helped me for so long.

Anyway, Richard, to answer your other question, the problem is that revCopyFolder copies not just the contents of the source folder but the source folder as well, and I didn't figure out a way to copy just the contents, so I wrote something to do it.

The code was relatively easy. What I was more interested in was either building or finding a central repo for a library of routines. Trevor built a stack that has a bunch of routines in it, but in the age of git, I'd like to have something that we put in there for everyone to point to. I've put a few things in git, already.

I went looking, today, for a routine to recursively copy folders and files from one place to another. I have several LC libraries, but none of them seemed to have such a routine. All of those libraries are in stacks. So... a) Does anyone have a git repo with LC libraries/routines in it b) If not, I'd like to start one, and I'd be looking for contributions to it, please. -- On the first day, God created the heavens and the Earth On the second day, God created the oceans.
