"Flat trees" are bad. Heirarchy is good for section gurus and assigning
responsibility. Having additional sections specified in DETAILS would
be OK, but symlinks would be even better (a unixism). The filesystem is
like a database. No reason not to use it as one, especially if you use
reiserfs. If perforce doesn't support symlinks, then I can see:
ADDITIONAL_SECTIONS[0]=
ADDITIONAL_SECTIONS[1]=
...
but I would consider that a dirty hack.
I don't like data duplication, so I would prefer even SPELL= removed andI don't know enough to make comment on using the filesystem vs file text.
have us depend on the filesystem location instead.
gaze search makes this almost a non-issue ... just adding my preference.

Hi,
One thing that impressed me about the recent sorcerer implementation was
that they had a flat grimoire tree, ie, no sections, the section was
defined through a "SECTION" tag in the DEATILS file. The beauty of this
sytem was that you can have a spell in multiple sections. For example,
gnome-pilot would have "SECTION=mobile,gnome,gnome1-apps,gnome2-apps",
abiword would have "SECTION=office,gnome,gnome1-apps" and abiword2 would
have "SECTION=office,gnome,gnome2-apps".
This means gaze section office would give abiword, abiword2 etc..., gaze
section gnome would give gnome-pilot,abiword,abiword2,etc...
I know this means changes. I don't think the flat tree is a requirement
but I think it would be nicer.
This would solve a number of issues in the past.
Open for dicussion.
Duane.

related spells. The new openoffice spell (if we get it working), has
been put in editors, and while swriter may fit in there okay, the
whole suite does not. So I was thinking put spells like openoffice,
koffice, abiword, gnumeric, gnucash, siag, etc. in there.
Thoughts, comments,
Geoff
