HI Everyone,
I have asked Claude AI for some assistance in debugging the code, this
is my first time using AI in anger. I was pointed in the direction of
Claude AI by the creator of the new "Disco" cave surveying device this
weekend.
We passed a few roadblocks and Claude tried to use pencircle, but in the
end after generating some more bits of code, we decided on the below.
It suggests rather than copy and pasting to type out the code manually
and also it seems to love Notepad++ and doesn't really know kate
texteditor or somehow prefers Notepad++.
Why would you type rather than use copy and paste
The below code does work for one line in one th2 file when generated
alongside the rest of the cave. Whether this will generate correctly I
cannot be sure when I convert all line walls to l_u_wall.
layout local
code metapost
def l_u_wall (expr P)=
T:=identity;
if path P:
if known(ATTR_color):
draw P withpen PenA withcolor scantokens(ATTR_color);
else:
draw P withpen PenA;
fi;
fi;
enddef;
When I read your earlier mail I realised we hadn't put a alternative to
the if, which it appears the above has tried to do badly. No idea why it
has added an if path P: that seems a bit strange, I don't think it is
needed, but I've not tested
Andrew
