Hi,
The following project was submitted to Savannah. It needs evaluation to
become a GNU package, can you give it a look, please ?
Submitter: <address@hidden>
Project Full Name: This isn't emacs editor MaCRoS
Project System Name: tmacs
License: lgpl
Approval URL: https://savannah.gnu.org/admin/groupedit.php?group_id=4264
Description: ;No kode yet Kiddies
;;;Tmacs a new version of emacs
(Abstract
This outlines a different way of approaching a platform
Most platforms operate a static core e.g. once you load a program it has
infinite persistance and you have to hunt down that program (google.com) This
outlines a new way of doing this )
(define temacs
As every gnu blooded hacker knows \"Emacs is the extensible,
customizable, self-documenting real-time display editor.\" (from the emacs
Manual). This is a extremely powerfull editor for the fact of its use of lisp
as a extension language . The humane environment proposes a new type of
environment of which is more humane. With the power that emacs is it is
somewhat daunting to learn every single program because it is a static platform.
The plan for tmacs is to make a dynamic version of emacs that can understand
any *.el file but dynamically load it instead of statically. It will use wget
to dynamically load the *.el files from emacs as needed. Also it will Part 2 of
the humane interface
\" * A better text search methodology, effective both within a local
document or system and with respect to extremely large data spaces such as the
web
* A method of eliminating all modal aspects of the basic human-machine
interface, a method that is readily learned by newcomers and which is
habituating
* An improved navigation method, as applicable to finding your way around
within a picture or memo as within a collection of images, documents, or
networks; a method which makes use of inborn and learned human navigational
skills
* A set of detail improvements to some existing mechanisms that make them
consistent with the goals and principles of the rest of the design.\"
What the hell am I talking about?
This is not a fork of emacs but a completely new idea of thinking about a
platform.
Lets say I am joe random hacker and i wanna use emacs.
I have to load that el file to load in lets say irc support.
What would i do to do that?
(load "ircelisp.el") and then evaluate that right? After hunting
around google.
Instead what my (tmacs) would do is this.
in your mini buffer you would type in simply
irc
then behind the scenes it would go use a search called FASD and look for an irc
interface behind it. FASD is a vector based search algorhtm outlined in
http://freenet.sourceforge.net/kronfol_final_thesis.pdf simlar.
To be this way the temacs system would utilize freenet and look for .el files
inserted in this.
The humane environment code isn't going to be used iff it is non gpl
compatible. Instead its core methodologies will be implemented in the user
interface.
footnote
EVERY SINGLE THING DISCUSSED IN THIS TO MY KNOWLEDGE IS GPL/LGPL compatiable or
a simple methodologly
