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, but you never know. Be sure you understand␊ |
19 | the changes before you use one of these booters and always keep a plan B!␊ |
20 | ␊ |
21 | Although i use this stuff on a daily basis, this is not meant to be an alternative to Chameleon!␊ |
22 | Any use of this booter/s should be considered "testing". If you do find a certain patch or␊ |
23 | functionality useful to your self and the "great" majority of Chameleon users, please make a request␊ |
24 | to the Chameleon team, on the appropriate places(*).␊ |
25 | Any other stuff can/should be reported to me directly, at the forum (*) by pm.␊ |
26 | I might miss a topic so, if you create one, pm me anyway.␊ |
27 | ␊ |
28 | The layout of the branch can change, but at least 2 folders will always be present (at least for now):␊ |
29 | CleanCut (CC) and Chazi (Ch):␊ |
30 | ␊ |
31 | - Ch is the main stuff; it's my work folder, test bed and personal booter. Comparing it to the trunk␊ |
32 | ␉ will probably be a "pain in" for anyone in the future. That's were CC comes in.␊ |
33 | ␉␊ |
34 | ␉- CC will be as close to the trunk as possible and i won't commit there patches that don't work for␊ |
35 | ␉ everyone, like the AutoResolution i use on Ch. It's mean to be compared easily and keep the stuff␊ |
36 | ␉ i consider most useful to Chameleon "at hand". Stuff committed here will always come from Ch!␊ |
37 | ␊ |
38 | Guidelines:␊ |
39 | ␊ |
40 | - learn and spread the knowledge.␊ |
41 | - simplify booter use as much as possible.␊ |
42 | - make the code more understandable for Sorcerer's Apprentice like my self.␊ |
43 | - all files loaded by the booter stay confined to Extra folder.␊ |
44 | - fixes that are not absolutely needed by all users, should be disabled by default.␊ |
45 | - help improving Chameleon documentation.␊ |
46 | - help testing and integrating new useful code to Chameleon.␊ |
47 | - help applying Coding Standards.␊ |
48 | - no absolute priority to Selected volume.␊ |
49 | - emulating a Mac it's not a priority!!!␊ |
