I’m contemplating a couple of additions to Frontier in the Atlantis release. Two new formats, JSON and Markdown, have come along and become popular since I last worked on Frontier. Two fantastic open formats, in wide use on the web. From many years of working in JavaScript, I miss JSON in Frontier. Esp JSON constants and the ability to walk through structures as arrays or objects. It’s just rational, so I’m thinking we should have a JSON type, and incorporate JSON syntax in UserTalk. Markdown support is actually needed because we don’t have code that works in the new environments for doing a wizzy text type. Luckily Markdown is here to fill that need. I’ve started a thread on this, if people have comments. Frontier was famously flamy because we had the ridiculous belief that everyone deserved to be heard anywhere they wanted to. That was not a good idea. These days I use the block command at the first sign of trouble. No second thoughts or chances. #
