How to use this page

• Add your wish to the wish list below. I will assume that wishes higher on the list have greater priority than those further down. Feel free to move wishes (your own or others!) up or down the list as you think appropriate.
• If your wish is an actual bug, it should probably be entered into bugzilla at http://aegir.stanford.edu/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi?product=ChipGenerator - specify component "GUI".
• I will make a to-do item based on your wish and add it to my to-do list, below.

Useful links: See #Links below.

• [mw] Can we make some sort of this-was-generated-from-that information available? Like on the bottom of your current php show "viewing ZZZ.php, generated from YYY.php[,] As I'm clicking through and hitting submit, it's easy to lose track of which files were generated from what. In general this isn't very useful probably but I think it is useful for tracking back when something goes wrong.

• [sr] Main GUI page https://www-vlsi.stanford.edu/mediawiki/index.php/CG/GUI needs attention.

• [sr] move todo, done lists from vlsi wiki to genesis2 wiki; update links page

• add to home page: "To-do list is now in the *wiki*" in place of existing link
• move todo.htm to this page
• eliminate todo.htm from perforce

  Do this: cd /tmp; ls -lt | grep steveri | head
  What are these and who is not cleaning them up!?:
    - /tmp/tmp.std{err,out}*
    - /tmp/tmp<pid>.[12]
    - /tmp/tmp-gui-unpack.<pid> (I suspect configs/install/build_*)
    - /tmp/stewie-ff.<pid>.log

• old link vlsiweb/ig should print message/forward to vlsiweb/genesis
• cleanup/maintain main GUI wiki page. (sr 9/2011)

See GUI Done List.

• Bugzilla: all GUI bugs
• [ad] Bug 763: Error in populating empty objects Status: Waiting for Andrew to confirm fix.

Is this right? From documentation at CG/GUI: "For now, the database must have been pre-translated from XML to JavaScript objects. In the future, the translation will be done on-the-fly."

TODO: opendesign.pl should probably have a better temp space than the scratch subdirectory, i.e. maybe /tmp!?

• For now, each XML design database must be pre-translated to JavaScript objects. In the future, the translation should be done on-the-fly by opendesign.pl.
• TODO: opendesign.pl should probably have a better temp space than the scratch subdirectory, i.e. maybe /tmp!?
