hi all! i like the idea of nevow example listing that was written a few hours ago. it would be cool to just run a livedemo of the examples somewhere like divmod.org/nevow.com. :) but what about implementing it in a more dynamic way like: http://www.sifu.info/exampleBrowser.tgz than there is no need to always edit the index.html file when you add a new one. it would be necessary though to place every example in its own directory (would be nice anyways to see which files belongs to which examples) and add a __init__.py with a litte metadata. a little docu for each example would probably also not hurt too much :) the example implementation above is just very a crude hack (will not even run on windows), because i did not want to invest hours before i know what you think about it. greetings - sifu

-1 This would require to add unnecessary stuff to each example, making every user think that they need that unnecessary stuff to write new code. I can't see anything really bad in adding 2 lines in a file for a new example. Although I agree it's not beautiful, It's the least intrusive for each example. IMHO at least. -- Valentino Volonghi aka Dialtone Now running FreeBSD 5.3-beta6 Blog: http://vvolonghi.blogspot.com Home Page: http://xoomer.virgilio.it/dialtone/

thats true... "every" user could think that they need to add an __init__.py :)

that is true too... and a really don't mind if it stays like it is now. just one more comment: as it is at the moment, we need to have all live examples in one directory, and that makes it hard to see at one glance, what files belongs to one example. and i also hoped to see more complicated examples with some sort of minitutorials to emerge. and as soon as we put an example in a subdir, we would need a __init__.py anyways and also some os.chdir hacks in the example.tac to make filetemplates work. bye bye - sifu
IMHO at least.
