I'm quite happy with upp and theide as is it now.

I'm not. It's driving me mad. Core, CtrlCore, CtrlLib, RichEdit... Nearly all of them. Smile

Because if something somewhere is better I'd like to have it...
Things like messed up home directory with logs, usrlog files on Linux and BSD? Config files where? Cleaning configs? (Ok, I've noticed that yesterday's commit contains .upp/ in App.cpp but how long did it take? Why into core hardcoded dirs? Freedesktop standards configs? start HTML viewer on Posix? DirTree Ctrl? CodeEditor for other languages (including external syntax files)? Right click menus in theide CodeEditor? Switching root-user from theide and e.g using dummy pakages as smart directories for linux/bsd configs (usc macro Input auto parser is nice) and having Topic++ as smart documentation? Archlinux abs upp_aris package... UWord - RichEdit linking and not insertion of picture (including agg svg) files, HTML code generation for different standards, HTML parser - converter into qtf and backwards? Better stylesheets management and editing for websites design (connected with php templates)? Esc and macro extended funtions like "macro recorder-player", extended upt templates and their parameters entering, MenuCreator -templator package (I like that very much) , MacOS style agg docker-menu for Posix (including OpenBSD, and MirBSD), ByteCode compiler for interpreted languages, standalone Dialect interpreter with U++ GUI Ctrls, C++ OO gigabase database packages? Using theide for Symbian60- epoc Nokia? ...
Have you got all that? I have or had. Messy as hell. Most of those I had working "as a proof of concept" level. But then it comes catching up with new official versions and merging...
And then I think if Mirek is so effective and can write such a clean and practically bugless code and he is using Uvs2... IT must be good.

...
And then I know that there people who work on the same things. Woldn't be better to share such things even they are very small and not perfectly or (at all) finished?

Maybe an added mercurial repository for code experiments on a centralized ftp server would be a good stuff, but then it needs a mantainer to keep it in sync with uvs2 as I'm trying to do now with svn repo. It's not an hard job, but it needs a person that can do it almost daily, to be effective.

If there's a volunteer here to do it, it's not too hard to find a free ftp server, build a mercurial repo synced with svn and open it to all.

I've got ftp server with 10 accounts 10gb/month bandw now. (In a few days or weeks could recover another, bigger one if needed)
I'm a voluteer who can do that job almost daily.
So mercurial repo?
