Visual Studio 2005 support - MRvcmt is considered frozen - is it possible to get MRStudio working with Toby's scripts?
Changes to our tagging convention. <package>_v000-000-000
1. Ability to run a program in debugger.
With just a button push MRvcmt will bring up gdb inside an emacs
session. Source is visible and all necessary context is
preserved. This is an essential function!
2. Tagging. The last time I tried it, I was able to make the tag but
MRStudio did not give me a chance to edit release.notes nor did it
update the version in the CMT requirements file [The second one may not
be necessary in the SCons-based system.]
3. Ability to spawn terminal window in the context of a package.
Actually, since the SCons system will be much better about managing context
than CMT, maybe there isn't much to do here.
Then this one, less important but annoying and probably easy to fix:
4. Change compiler specification from 'GCC' to 'gcc'. Using capitals for
this is very strange for the typical Linux/unix user. Just about
everyone will get it wrong the first time.
And even lesser things, which are largely a matter of taste and can
wait until the integration with the SCons system is done.
5. As new functions are added to MRStudio, it's most important to get them
into some menu because icons by themselves can be obscure. Also displaying
every icon in a toolbar can take up a lot of space.
6. Font in upper frame (with tabs for requirements, release.notes, mainpage.h)
is unnecessarily large. The font used in the lower frame looks great:
compact but very readable. Why not use it in both frames?
7. The cvs status command for MRvcmt only outputs information for
the requirements file. MRStudio outputs information for all files.
I'm not sure what's more appropriate and useful (I didn't even
know this command existed in MRvcmt!).
8. More configurability of appearance (e.g., ability to suppress toolbars)
would be nice.
