#16 Authors decision commands

[Christof R]

Hi Ekkart,

first of all thanks for this very helpful package.

It would be nice to have something like an \accept{} and \reject{} command that can be wrapped around \added, \deleted and \replaced to indicate the authors decision. Within this, the result would be the same as with the final option. The advantage: It's on a per entry level, the issue would still be visible even if accepted/rejected, which isn't the case when using the script and single instances could be rejected, which isn't the case when using the final option.

The optional parameters id and remark, as for other commands, could also be helpful.

Example:

\reject[remark={I don't like the reviewer}]{\replaced{good}{bad}}

Sounds like an interesting feature.

I will keep this in mind, but I can't promise anything due to a limited time I can provide for the changes package at the moment.

For the presentation: I don't think this should behave like "final" because e.g. with deletions they would not be visible, but the rejection/acception comment should be visible. Right?

Maybe I'm overcomplicating this?

Hello,

I've tried to build an example and attached it.

I didn't think about deletions. There you are right that the final mode would probably not be good enough. However, I still think if you accept w/o remark it still can be like final.

A colleague of mine also suggested to put the resolution to an additional parameter like \added[id=CR,status=accept/reject]{missing}, but having another chance for remarks might be well worth the additional key strokes…
