hi there, this is just a little note to let you know that I finished some important milestone towards the next release: synopsis has a new formatter, which I called 'SXR' in reference to LXR, the 'linux cross referencer'. SXR is basically just a facade to the HTML formatter, with some specific settings, such as links from source views not going to a manual page, but instead to a cgi script that searches for variable / type identifiers in a database (a python pickle, mind you). To see it in action, visit the (just updated) synopsis website. Speaking of which, I finally managed to fix the references to the repository browser (viewcvs). The sxr online tool is at http://synopsis.fresco.org/sxr/files/ Everything needed to run sxr is included in the code. Even a little http server so you can experiment with it without having to configure your apache demon. I also made some fixes to the boost documentation scripts in demo/C++/Boost/ (hi Dave !), so this, too, can now generate an sxr view (just call 'make sxr' there...). The issue tracker will welcome any bugs or RFEs you run across :-) Happy browsing, Stefan
