currently working on:

-Active development is dormant until rebol Devcon in september.

Send any urgent request my way, so I can see what I can do about it!

What's next for SLiM

(In no particular order !)

  • -check if there is a %slim-setup.r relative to slim install and 'LOAD it to configure slim. Thgis aleviates need to put setup info in user.r also allows to share a setup amongst multiple users. (user request: Volker Nitsch, Robert M. Muench)
  • detect user name in this config file to have per-user setups :-)
  • allow file! type in open (user request: Volker Nitsch)
  • remove slim-name dependency in header, use file name ...
  • add per component validation
  • slim/expose/context (for vprint)
  • slim/auto-document
  • slim/net loading and caching (download, verify, update, install)
  • slim/setup
  • slim/list

Recently completed Things

complete history

0.9.5.3 - 2004-07-14

  • added /digits refinement to as-tuple (to truncate digits in tuple values)

0.9.5.4 - 2004-08-10

  • slim/findpath() now adds the application's %what-dir/libs/ path BEFORE all the paths, so that if it provides libraries with itself, they will be loaded in preference to all others (if versions match ;-) and it wont have to supply a slim/paths setup to have them loaded.

0.9.5.5 - 2004-08-16

  • slim/vprint/vprobe/vout ... renamed /error refinement to /always and left /error so that stack-track mode can eventually be added.
  • slim/vprobe ... Added return value = data supplied, to be complient with normal probe function... This was an oversight of implementation.
