Re: Debian Installer?





From: abdulhaq <al-arabeyes at alinsyria dot fsnet dot co dot uk>
As no code is bug free, it would certainly seem sensible that these algorithms
are incorporated into external projects using libraries rather than copying
and pasting of functions. Can I suggest that Ahmad turn his code into a
library, and use the same API (i.e. function prototypes) as fribidi? This
shouldn't be too arduous and will make bug-fixes far easier to propagate to
the external projects.

good suggestion, but please understand why its not a library in the first place.
PuTTY was the main reason for minibidi, and PuTTY is a 1 .exe and the author
is very proud of it being a 1 file app. so an external lib with putty was a patch
stopper.
now, with cups it could easily be done, and the authors wouldnt mind as cups
already has its build scripts.


nadim, what do you think about turning it into a lib ? i need help here.
abdulhaq, thanks for your comments, testing, feedback.


ak.
