That's a good idea Asko. That will redirect tons of
mails from this list to another? Sometimes i think the purpose of this list just
have been missed just like me, all this time. Whe can first ask to PUC if to
host or not to host :), that is not the point, but other domain and other
features CAN be used. The one who develop patches use the main list to know
about Lua and the,... mmmm patch list? Develop list? Core Develop list? Just one
tag in the email Subject can be a start. Or one page to create index to the
subject. wooow... Sorry, brain storm incoming. Really, the name or way to
do isn't very important, but the concept of section, i think will be very
pleasant.
thanks

int divide operator
Maybe we should have an
branch, which is adding certain Power Patches to the latest official version.
Basically, it would be a get-together of N nbr of power patches, hosted
on someone's svn, other than PUC. Nothing official, but it would test
the concepts.
As to me, I've needed // _once_ since the discussions surfaced.

Hello,
I’ve just been porting a code
with a hundred of integer division in it (ok maybe a bit less, but still…).
It is mainly calculating the output formatting for hex number from their
range in bits. I realize that I use much more often integer division than
%.
Now I read code resulting, I
really think that an integer divider could make it a lot easier to read and
far less boring to write. At least I’m lucky enough that this is not in the
main loop so that performances are not too much degraded with the call to
math.floor. (well with the int division we’ll still have to perform it
(unless being based asko integer patch), but at least it saves the function
call).
This is not blocking, but I
think this is still a bit more than a nice to have.
Regards
