1. addition to the Project email: the project is a big chunk, you
obviously cannot solve it entirely, and you are not expected to. The
guideline is: whatever you do, do it well. It is much better to have
slightly less coverage and have very good discussion of whatever you
cover, than more coverage but imprecise or unclear discussion of what
you cover.
2. The list of keywords is now available on the dochoa website:
http://brico.auf.net/dochoa
They are all uploaded now, you'll get them if you sync. Please send me
feedback if you spot odd results, I'll try to upgrade things promptly.
3. When you open an editor on your queries (such as eg 'Sessions first
withSubject'), the editor now contains the number of the utterance, so
you can go back and find its context.
4. There is now a 'find:' keyword. You can use it like this:
self first targetUtterances verbal find: 'why'
This will open an editor with all verbal utterances that contain the
sequence 'why'.
5. Tentatively, I changed the first line of the child utterances, so
that you now see the chat format in all its gory details (you need to
close and reopen your editor to get that). Earlier it gave you a
'cleaned up' version to protect you from chat. However, that led to
the puzzlement of some people who had apparently repeated tags. I
believe that those 'repetitions' were actually correct, because the
orginal chat format had those. Those of you who suffered from apparent
repetitions of tags, please let me know if you worries are
soothed. Those of you who hate the new display, let me know also.
Happy thinking and exploring!
