Well, as you can see, the NaNoWriMo didn't really work out. Astonishingly, it turns out that a day has only twenty-four hours.
However, I have managed to devote an afternoon this weekend to porting my XBBCode module. This is particularly interesting if you are from Spiderweb, because XBBCode for Drupal 7 is one of the steps on the roadmap to the new Pied Piper Project and the new Blades Forge.
I've managed to achieve a few milestones in short time:
- Creating, editing and deleting custom tags works.
- The basic tag package has been ported.
- The actual filter works, including basic, custom and dynamic tags.
Other than cleanup, the only part that remains of the actual XBBCode port are the other two sub-modules, list and table. The far bigger task ahead is the porting of the Highlighter module. Highlighter unfortunately contains some nasty file juggling and PEAR voodoo, which will be hard to modernize.
