Emacs ringing system: planned changes

Here are the changes I plan to make some time, in no particular order. Items will be removed from here as they're done, and corresponding items will appear in the changes page.

• method styles to suggest layout styles (in progress; needs questions asking in different order)
• Configuration dictionary in PostScript, and (provision for) appropriate setup in Lisp (in progress)
• Method groups for each stage occurring in touch book (done?).
• ``hide all ringing buffers, the boss is coming'' option on stand
• PostScript titles to fit themselves within available space instead of making things go wrong if there's not enough room.
• touchbook to record details of mistakes
• place-notation:recreate-string-from-changes to return something other than the treble, at least for lead ends (might return the treble in the work), when the change is just the external places.
• Circular full grid
• narrower layout on which to put stereograms
• settable BoundingBox for PostScript output
• HTML table output for methods (and, perhaps, groups)
• Lead end blobs not to get clipped at start and end of lines?
• Routines provided by line-style PostScript for title-style PostScript to call to find hints on title size etc.
• Command to clear ephemeral group from mSiRiL-mode buffer
• Intelligent conducting to take user back towards the bits on which they most need practice.
• Help for method extension.
• Treat interface to finding methods as an API with double implementation -- with those lists, and straight from buffers (in progress)
• callbacks on each row, having first sorted out callback argument lists to suit, allowing things such as Dixons (in progress)
• editing of mSiRiL lines
• merge teaching and normal user input

Things to do before announcing widely

• complete the touch parser
• complete the grid editor
• make it start Stedman at the right place (the other principles are OK)
