[Bayonne-devel] 0.6.1, russian language support, and macro script processing

[David Sugar]

I have been able to get through most of the hard part of recoding the 
Russian phrasebook module, so that, and a few other changes, 
particularly related to external wrapper config files for executables 
that are in libexec, rather than .pl/.py/.php files in scripts, which 
are auto-wrapped and parsed for #bayonne: fields, will be in 0.6.1.

The macros facility will soon be used with libexec .tgi apps to wrap 
libexec apps under macro commands for bayonne scripting, and a complete 
default macro library will be supplied in future releases.  This means 
you will be able to do things like:

        import sendmail
        record temp/myrecording
        sendmail::local to="address@hidden" file="temp/myrecording"

and have sendmail::local invoke sendmail.tgi through libexec, which 
would be a perl app that then completes sendmail delivery.  This removes 
a lot of the burdon of coding new extensions in ccscript itself or 
within Bayonne to do specialized and extended processing, like sending 
email, invoking tts (import festival), or other things like that which 
already have good support in other scripting languages (like 
perl)...this will become more appearent as macros are added over time.
