<h2>How this works</h2>

<p><b>Click on the solid triangle in a sub-heading to reveal</b> the individual to-do items. Click again to hide.<br />
<p>Printing this page uses a much smaller font. Complain to <a href="mailto:expo-tech@lists.wookware.org">the nerd list</a> if you don't like this behaviour.

<p>Edit this page by using the same "Edit this page" function that you may have used before.
<p>To see the "data maintenance" and "survey data-entry" to-do lists, go to <a href="todo-data.html">the other TO-DO list</a>

<h3>Module to-do texts</h3>
<p>These are extracted directly from the <var>todo = &apos;&apos;&apos;Thing to do &apos;&apos;&apos;</var> string at the top of each file of troggle code:</p>

This to-do list is generated directly from the troggle python code files and is the most up to date
to-do list for programming you are likely to find anywhere. Every serious maintainer also maintains their own personal handwritten notes and/or Google Keep lists too.

<li class="todo">We should not be relying on filenames to accurately describe the format of the files. This is not robust and may also be a bit insecure.
2022-02-15 19:19:35 +00:00
We should use <a href="https://github.com/ahupp/python-magic">python-magic</a> or some other wrapper around Linux libmagic1 C library.
But note that there are TWO packages called python-magic, see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/436220/how-to-determine-the-encoding-of-text/16203777#16203777

<h3>The To Do pages</h3>
<p>We were working on a more capable and easier-to-use to-do system which would mimic
how <a href="https://github.com/CaveSurveying/CUCCexposurveyissues/issues">GitHub Issues</a> do this sort of thing,
2023-01-29 15:26:34 +00:00
but now we are just using standard HTML5 tags. OK, using RST could be explored: <a href="todo.rst">todo.rst</a> but we don't have a renderer/editor for it yet.
But <a href="/handbook/computing/todo.html_edit">you can edit this page</a> very easily.
