From: Kevin Day Date: Tue, 19 Nov 2024 02:17:38 +0000 (-0600) Subject: Bugfix: The IKI and EKI specifications have mistakes and needs clarifications. X-Git-Url: https://git.kevux.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e9621b09db34cfd9ac6264c77068c34afa5bfb17;p=fll Bugfix: The IKI and EKI specifications have mistakes and needs clarifications. The wording of the specification is now greatly improved. I noticed that some of the specification is actually incomplete. I removed the incomplete sentence. Make sure the FSS-000C specification is updated to add allowances for the EKI specification. The example in both the IKI and the EKI specifications has several mistakes. Use the grave character (U+0060) for the code to help avoid needing to escape the single quotes. The IKI inside of a valid IKI Variable do not need to be escaped. The example that directly states "is escaped to not be treated as IKI Variable" is incorrectly being documented as a valid IKI syntax (a significant mistake on my part). Add explicit escaping examples to help make the escape behavior more explicit and clear. I believe the current escaping logic in the IKI processing code is incorrect and will need to be updated and corrected following this commit. I remembered this time to make the date based on UTC. The version date in this commit is based on the current UTC Earth day. --- diff --git a/specifications/eki.txt b/specifications/eki.txt index ae36114..7ef68b4 100644 --- a/specifications/eki.txt +++ b/specifications/eki.txt @@ -1,13 +1,13 @@ # fss-0002 iki-0000 # # license open-standard-license-1.0-or-later -# version 2024/11/10 +# version 2024/11/19 # # This file (assumed to be named eki.txt) can be more easily read using the following iki_read commands: # iki_read eki.txt +Q -w -WWW character "'" "'" code '"' '"' italic '"' '"' # # To read the "EKI Specifications" section of this file, use this command sequence: -# fss_basic_list_read iki.txt +Q -cn "EKI Specifications" | iki_read +Q -w -WWW character "'" "'" code '"' '"' italic '"' '"' +# fss_basic_list_read eki.txt +Q -cn "EKI Specifications" | iki_read +Q -w -WWW character "'" "'" code '"' '"' italic '"' '"' # EKI Specifications: @@ -45,44 +45,61 @@ EKI Specifications: code:"" Example\: - code:'# fss-000c eki-0000 + code:`# fss-000c eki-0000 - This is my sentence, anything can go here but sometimes I want to italic\:"emphasize some text". + This is my sentence, anything can go here but sometimes I want to italic:"emphasize some text". - Other times I want to render a url with bold such as this example url: bold:url\:\'http://www.example.com/url with space/\'. + Other times I want to render a URL with bold such as this example URL: bold:url:'http://www.example.com/url with space/'. - There are no comments, except for maybe the FSS\:"Featureless Settings Specification" header (which would not resolve to any EKI syntax anyway). + There are no comments, except for maybe the FSS:"Featureless Settings Specification" header (which would not resolve to any EKI syntax anyway). - Quotes may be included, such as: code\:"const char *string = \"My \\\"quoted\\\" C string.\";". + Quotes may be included, such as: code:"const char *string = \"My \\\"quoted\\\" C string.\";".
