You mean, you threw away the manual, so you'd have to find out everything yourself, by playing/hacking with the system? Man, that'd be some real "Guy Hardening" you did there :-). Like, leaving your clothes at home

You still have hope? Somehow I find it hard not to believe, that XML won't come back. One day :(

Meh, Dart. Yet another language to master, that does not bring me any advantages overall, except for this very platform. I also would welcome an XML based, declarative approach to GUI. Makes cross-platform development even more easy.

It's not just about costs. It's about size! The higher the efficiency, the less solar cells you need. This has impacts on environment (solar cell farms), adds possibilities for miniaturization (what, if a vehicles rooftop could fe

Very nice! I often end up running MidnightCommander but this would be enough in most cases. I really like the idea!

And least I forget, because nobody mentioned it, yet, what about the beauty of the DIN A papersize? It has been adopted as an ISO, even! Where everything is simply a half of the previous size.

Since I do not know the data he stores, and in which way (model), I can not comment on this. This is why I asked. If I'd be to do something similar (actually, I do) I'd use an XML (document) backend, like eXist or BaseX along with

I agree. While I appreciate the lack of "tacky business" looks, it also is a site about shopping, so I would make it a store like interface, but less overload as we usually get.
