I don't know yet, but I would like to use Tonel and some import/export tools to use Fossil as my backend for file based storage instead of Git. I can fully understand you - using Fossil is so easy and safe in comparison with Git where one never knows...
Yes. I think that DVCS wise, developers imagination has been monopolized by Git/GitHub. There are powerful simple little tools out there that are practically outside of the developers' radar. Let's see what happens in the Fossil + Pharo integration front.
These days are particularly slow in Colombia, but I will post advances as soon as I have something. Thank you.
Btw, I looked at Grafoscopio and it is interesting you had been looking or using tools like Leo editor, Pollen - I also considered Skribilo (Guile) - since I am also searching some toolchain to improve web publishing (paper output is not problem with LateX or ConTeXt) , but still haven't decided what to use/learn since learning Racket/Pharo requires some extra time until it can pay off (I want to stay focused on my writing and studying and not turn myself into programmer)...for now I'm still using Emacs/markdown-mode although in the past I spent time with both AÑciidoc(tor) and rst markups.
I looked also at Skribilo in my search for more powerful tools for interactive writing and documentation, and Emacs/OrgMode (see [1]). I really liked the Racket approach of a meta programming tool for making Domain Specific Languages (like the ones used for documentation). But in the development front I think that Pharo/Smalltalk is hardly beaten by anything, more if you're thinking not only in publishing (web, mobile or print) but also in agile data visualization (see [2]). In that regard becoming a coder was a valuable deviation from my research and study that paid huge reward later in those fronts also. [1] https://duckduckgo.com/?q=devops+org+mode&atb=v76-7&iar=videos&iax=videos&ia... [2] https://vimeo.com/94724841 Is good to see more interest in interactive documentation in this community. It seems that good times are coming. Cheers, Offray
