Update of bug #56542 (project octave): Summary: pkg: new subcommand to open package git or hg repo in a web browser => pkg: new subcommands to open package related pages in a web browser _______________________________________________________ Follow-up Comment #2: Updating the subject. I think this same bug could be used to add a number of additional well-defined keywords for package metadata. Some examples of what I am thinking of: * pkg repo - open the package repository web page * pkg wiki - open the package wiki * pkg web or pkg homepage - open the package home page, may be same or different from the repository * pkg bug or pkg issue - open the bug or issue tracker for the package * pkg faq - open the package FAQ documentation or wiki * pkg doc or pkg manual - open a web hosted version of the package documentation The common factor is these are all simple commands that pass a URL to the Octave 'web' command, and the URL can be stored as a field in the package DESCRIPTION file. The task remaining is to enumerate what new command names we want to support and what the corresponding DESCRIPTION field names should be. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56542> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
