[Zope-dev] Future of StructuredText

2002-09-04 Thread Andreas Jung
The exisiting implementation of StructuredText in Zope has several disadvantages: - its behaviour depends on the locale settings (letters and punctuation is taken from the locale settings). In some case the locale settings are imcomplete (characters ¡ and ¿ are not available through

Leonardo, Many thanks for the hints. I will investigate, but I probably won't have time until next week. Of course, this all depends on how well gdb (or your preferred debugger, should you chose to adapt the instructions) works correctly with threads on True64. In my experience, the Tru64

IMHO, the indenting hassle is one of the best features of classic STX. It's a pain to line things up but it does make for very readable source documents. I think STX-NG is a little better than ReST for constructing readable source docs; especially if they are long, like chapters of a book due

I'm sure this has been proposed a thousand times b4. Product management/download/installation really should be integrated into ZMI, kinda like what apt-get does now. All products is already sitting on a central repository (zope.org), all that's needed is a front-end and a standard packaging
