Suggestions for additions to next official release: - dig - buildwalk (they can co-exist) - [m|r|o]list <. | zone | start_vnum end_vnum> - rcopy - I suggest adding this with a config.c toggle to turn it off Some implementors think it's bad form to encourage copying a rdesc. - command escape in editor : /!mudcommand - perfect for replying to mudmail, since you can read the old message while formatting. Important issues: - make OasisOLC decide how overlapping zones are meant to be used, and especially how to handle the saving. - modulize do_oasis. As it is it's quite hard to figure out, even for experienced programmers. A splitup in subroutines would help the over-all readability. Other, more long-term, features, I'd like to suggest: - modulization of the oasis menus (see Georges old todo.Oasis_Espec) - context sensitive help system (I'm currently making one, that'll be easily expandable from DG scripts to OasisOLC[1]) Off-scope features, I'd say fitted OasisOLC: - Zone flags (level range, builder names, zone description). Welcor [1] Perhaps I'll just make it, submit it to you, and make my patch against your OasisOLC version later. -- +---------------------------------------------------------------+ | FAQ: http://qsilver.queensu.ca/~fletchra/Circle/list-faq.html | | Archives: http://post.queensu.ca/listserv/wwwarch/circle.html | | Newbie List: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/circle-newbies/ | +---------------------------------------------------------------+
