Discussion

• Updates
  • Greg has help view implemented
  • "usage" command now puts URL in log window if available
  • Greg added "ch2cmd:" scheme for executing commands from HTML viewer
  • Elaine suggested that "help" should fall back to "usage" if no web page is available
  • Ribbons is slowly coming along
  • TomG added "transparency" and "select" commands
  • TomG fixed "color" command to handle transparency properly
  • TomG changed "style" command argument order to match "color" command (same with "transparency")
  • TomG added selection argument to "view" command, also "orient" option to look down z axis
  • We want to let users choose what is displayed in the reply log. Perhaps use css to selectively display "commands", "command output", "script output", "thumbnails", etc.
