1 | About me:␊ |
2 | ␊ |
3 | Just the average curious guy, that likes to know a bit of this and that.␊ |
4 | I'm not a skilled coder or even a developer, nor i pretend to be! Most of what i'm doing here␊ |
5 | is simply tweaking code that already exists, though lack of knowledge is not the only reason␊ |
6 | for this behavior.␊ |
7 | Just trying to learn, share my opinion (as noob as it may be) and give back some help,␊ |
8 | within my skills, knowledge and available time.␊ |
9 | So bare with me :) i'll remember to do the same with you when the time comes.␊ |
10 | ␊ |
11 | Thanks. ␊ |

14 | About the branch:␊ |
15 | ␊ |
16 | First, the usual warning: use it at your own risk!␊ |
17 | No, it's not going to set your machine on fire or something like that :)␊ |
18 | Everything is tested on my machine first and i don't mess with stuff i don't have knowledge to mess␊ |
19 | with, but you never know. Be sure you fully understand the changes before you use this booter␊ |
20 | (CleanCut included) and always keep a plan B!!!␊ |
21 | I will do my best to explain what these changes are and more.␊ |
22 | ␊ |
23 | Although i use this stuff on a daily basis, this is not meant to be an alternative to Chameleon!␊ |
24 | Any use of this booter/s should be considered "testing". If you do find a certain patch or␊ |
25 | functionality useful to your self and the "great" majority of Chameleon users, please make a request␊ |
26 | to the Chameleon team, on the appropriate places(*).␊ |
27 | Any other stuff can/should be reported to me directly, at the forum (*) by pm.␊ |
28 | I might miss a topic so, if you create one, pm me anyway.␊ |
29 | ␊ |
30 | The layout of the branch can change, but at least 2 folders will always be present (at least for now):␊ |
31 | CleanCut and Chazi:␊ |
32 | ␊ |
33 | - Chazi is the main stuff! It's My Work Folder, Test Bed and "Personal" Booter. Comparing it to the␊ |
34 | ␉ trunk will probably be a "pain in" for anyone in the future. That's were CleanCut comes in.␊ |
35 | ␊ |
36 | ␉- CleanCut, as the name implies, is a "clean" cut of Chazi; will always be as close to the trunk as␊ |
37 | ␉ possible and i won't commit there patches that don't work for everyone, like the AutoResolution␊ |
38 | ␉ one i use on Chazi (this may change in the future).␊ |
39 | ␉ It's meant to be compared easily and keep the stuff i consider most useful to Chameleon "at hand".␊ |
40 | ␉ Stuff committed there, besides trunk updates, will always come from and reflect changes on Chazi,␊ |
41 | ␉ keeping the limitations above in mind.␊ |
42 | ␉ This project it's not meant to be used! Want to test something, use Chazi.␊ |
43 | ␊ |
44 | Guidelines:␊ |
45 | ␊ |
46 | - learn and spread the knowledge.␊ |
47 | - make the code more understandable for Sorcerer's Apprentice like my self.␊ |
48 | - help applying Coding Standards.␊ |
49 | - help improving Chameleon documentation.␊ |
50 | - help testing and integrating new useful code to Chameleon.␊ |
51 | ␊ |
52 | - simplify booter use as much as possible.␊ |
53 | - all files loaded by the booter stay confined to Extra folder.␊ |
54 | - fixes that are not absolutely needed by all users, are disabled by default. (reviewable)␊ |
55 | - no absolute priority to Selected volume.␊ |
56 | - emulating a Mac it's not a priority!!!␊ |
