Issues

This page is part of the Plain English programming language's wiki.
Issues to addressed:

Strategy issues:

1) Need to choose an open-source license.

The license should be chosen to encourage ubiquity. The language should be usable for both open-source and closed-source projects. This eliminates the GPL.

12) Can the compiler be packaged as an IDE plug-in?

13) Can the noodle library and the compiler be packaged to run on Try It Online?

Regression testing:

The demoed fixes.txt file in the source code repository contains a list of features that have not yet been regression tested. Some of the them have more-or-less practical test plans. When the features have automated regression tests, they can be moved from demoed fixes.txt to done issues.txt .

Pretty printing issues:

6) Indent procedure bodies

7) Indent loop bodies

8) Line wrapping

Feature requests:

Many feature requests are listed in the issues.txt file in the source code repository.
