If we're truly committing to rubegoldbergian solutions, let's include a turtle-graphics program that draws some text, which is then printed out and OCR'd.

I'd really like it if we didn't have to depend on the GUI to be the interface that scripters use to submit/update script info. I'm not trying to be lazy, it's just that there's plenty of work to do already on a strictly read-only system that can interact anonymously. And my time is extremely...

A month is fine. If we're going to do this let's do it right. You/we should interface with fewyn and see if he's okay with hosting the resultant (php?) script. And serving the repo.json (or xml, or whatever) file.

Actually it looks like svnkit doesn't yet have a stable version that supports 1.8, so I won't be doing that until they do.

Not at the root of your repo, just at the root of the directory that you specify to checkout. You could have a project like https://svn.code.sf.net/p/my_project/folder1/folder2/folder3/scripts And as long as you specify that the url to check out is...

I've said before that the scripts menu is In The Way of Progress, and it certainly is once again. Sigh. I can google around for some sort of bookmark manager implementation that I can piggyback on, because I really don't feel like writing one from scratch.

Yeah, I gotcha, Z. Your suggestions make total sense in light of that. It seems that we had agreed to the file-hosted-on-SVN part somewhere 'round page 2 and moved on to other things, but if we want to reexamine that, I'm down. It's not the perfect solution. Anyway, what it comes down to is...

So the proposal is to expand the /scripts namespace to include any projects that contain a /scripts folder, likewise for /relay, /ccs... And then slowly phase out the "local copy" concept. That transition certainly would be... bumpy. I think the reason we never originally contemplated this as...

Interesting thought. I'll ponder. Been a while since I thought about why the system was designed the way it is.

I guess you didn't read the line before the one you quoted? Or the line at the end: So no, your changes in the local copy are not guaranteed to survive some/any SVN operations. The one in the working copy - i.e. the one in svn/ - will survive, as Bale linked you to.

You can already do this both in BALLS and CCS with differing syntax. Follow the links that theraze posted.

The point is that I don't want to set up a server to receive and digest things in order to make this all work. Yeah, that could work. I'd probably go with a pre-defined list of acceptable categories, coercing to "miscellaneous" if none is specified or the field doesn't equal any pre-defined...

Locking this thread. We do not support mallbots.

This doesn't have to be its own thing; the GUI can display arbitrary HTML so you can in-line it in your description. How would the backend of this work exactly? We have one text file, hosted on an SVN repository. How do we get to your system from there?

Nope. If we had access to the apache logs we could parse it out, but sourceforge doesn't provide that. I don't think. Well, yes. We could. But at that point we have no infrastructure for taking requests-for-access. And do we switch after the thing gets vandalized once? Three times? It's...

I actually don't care too much about the end-user who is hurt by running malicious code that they obtain through the script browser. We The Devs cannot and do not guarantee "safe" execution, however you want to define that - wasted turns, suboptimal meat expenditure, sending all your stuff to...

I disagree with your worst case for "moderation after submission." One particularly spiteful person can create endless smurf accounts on sourceforge and keep replacing the entire registry with penis.ash. Ad infinitum. I would love to create a peer feedback system but that requires a server...

Script-list-too-long is solved by either judicious use of subfolders or by setting scriptMRULength > 0. As for making menus scrollable: probably won't happen. Swing itself provides no such functionality, likely because once you get to the point that you need to add scrolling you shouldn't be...

Are all the sign gyms so changed?

Sure we can. Look at DisabledItemsComboBox.
