Python bindings already exist, I think through the CORBA bindings, but I'm not certain on that. If you have patches you'd like to submit, you can send them into our bug tracker (along with a ticket) as well as submit them directly to this list. Just a basic `svn diff > patchfile.diff` is usually sufficient, as long as you're patching against the SVN HEAD revision. Improved documentation would be great. When a new version of the library is released I generally create Doxygen documentation and post it to a subsection of the CrossWire website. http://www.crosswire.org/~ghellings/1_6_0classdocs/ is the 1.6.0 version of the docs. If you're going to be updating the documentation in the headers, putting it into Doxygen format would be greatly appreciated. ;) > > Please let me know when/where/how I can start if the headers aren't a > priority. Thank you and may our > Lord bless you, Headers (documentation, really) are always a priority in my mind. That's the place most developers will go in order to get the feel for how they can interact with the library. Sort of a "first impression" of the code itself idea. --Greg > > troy > > _______________________________________________ > sword-devel mailing list: sword-devel@crosswire.org > http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel > Instructions to unsubscribe/change your settings at above page > _______________________________________________ sword-devel mailing list: sword-devel@crosswire.org http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel Instructions to unsubscribe/change your settings at above page
