Re: [Scid-users] HTML export (finished ?)

[Benoit St-P. <ben...@in...>]

Hello Pascal,

If you are lazy, what are we ?
Personnally, I quite enjoy the HTML page !
So keep up the good work, Pascal !

***

Personnally again, I fail to see how the output as it is useless.  In  
fact, considering that standalone webpages of javascripted games only  
a tiny minority of the publications of javascripted games on the web  
would be more than not true : it would be just plain false.  The last  
time I looked at it, Win-based Palview may have more options, but  
only to generate standalone webpages.

Maybe it would be preferable, instead of arguing about the reasons to  
include configurability, just to say exactly what kind of  
configuration one desperatly needs.  When I have a itch I would like  
another person to scratch, I don't give reasons : I simply ask for  
it, the more gently as I could, rarely arguing along the way.

So leaving matters of courtesy aside, what do we need Scid to  
generate exactly ? This is the question we need to address first.

Cheers,

Benoit St-Pierre

PS:  Keep Scid usable by leaving the right-click to contextual menus,  
like EVERY other software around, please !
