However, each volunteer working on the CHM efforts has their own approach and ethos. Stan who designed this device is more casual. <br /><br />I will suggest this practice again but I don't expect to see a change. I am definitely with you on this topic, underscored by the experience with the relay tester code.Carl Claunchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00359841432891565909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8869371566442567811.post-36781656363828411072017-07-10T01:53:35.408-07:002017-07-10T01:53:35.408-07:00Hi,

Stan will need <br />> to hunt it down tomorrow.<br /><br />I understand perfectly well how and why this happens, but it still makes me cringe a bit.<br /><br />May I suggest version-control? Try something like GitHub. It is very easy to get started with, you need very little extra tooling and if you don't mind people sharing the code it is free.<br /><br />Who knows, there even may be more people with input to the project...<br /><br />Have a nice week,<br />MarianMarian Aldenhövelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02996844665780738139noreply@blogger.com
