Dear implementations-list readers,
We need a volunteer to test vimpulse-modal.el, a file which Vegard wants included in Vimpulse. Vegard can't volunteer, since he himself wrote vimpulse-modal. But anyone else who uses Vimpulse can volunteer, even if they don't know how to code in elisp, and even if they're not an expert at using Vimpulse. Just tell us:
* if vimpulse-modal worked for you, * whether you think that it makes Vimpulse better or not, * and any comments, if you have any.
Alessandro is too busy to volunteer, and I'm not really interested. I haven't been using Emacs much lately.
You can download vimpulse-modal from http://my-trac.assembla.com/vimpulse/ticket/14 -- look in the "Attachments" section.
Once you test it, just reply to this email to send your test results to the mailing list. One person's opinion is enough for us to decide if vimpulse-modal merits being included in Vimpulse or not. But even if someone else has posted their opinion, you can post your opinion too if you want.
The rest of this email is Vegard's description of vimpulse-modal, copied from the Trac ticket for it.
Thanks in advance, -Jason
The package works fine for me with the latest Emacs (built today from the Git mirror of the main Bazaar repository) and today's SVN Vimpulse. BTW, this is ridiculous -- Vegard, as the current maintainer of Vimpulse and the author of vimpulse-modal.el, is the one who should decide whether to include it or not. You (Jason) are going to make such a decision for him, based on an opinion of a single user? I'm very happy Vimpulse has got a maintainer that really cares about the package and makes it better. I have not tested it havily yet, but it's already obvious that nothing serious is broken since the last version, right on the contrary: Vegard fixed some bugs and added useful functionality. Thank you very much and put up the good work! P.S.: What I miss from vimpulse-modal.el are the unmapping functions to complement the mapping functionality. Maybe you're going to add them after merging with Vimpulse, as well as the Vim (un)mapping Ex commands?
