Needs better code documentation

[nashv]

I downloaded the code, in order to add password encryption using crypto.js, so that Platen could be my regular blog client. But the code is so much of a mess...It really needs better documentation.

Documentation is not a bad idea, though I'm not sure when I'll have the time.

By the way, I'm afraid you've committed a bit of a netiquette foux pas. Calling someone else's code "so much of a mess" is rarely an effective way to get help from them. Please allow me to suggest an alternative approach:

You: "Hey man, great job on this tool, thanks a lot for writing it. Listen, I want to add password encryption but I'm having a bit of trouble figuring out where to do it. Could you help?"

Me: "Sure, all settings including the password are managed in the settings service (scripts/services/settings.js). There are two methods, load() and save() which could be modified to add password encryption. Hope this helps!"

You: "Great, thanks again!"

The difference is subtle, but surprisingly effective. Have a nice day!

Oh dear me, it's one of those sensitive ones who do not understand that an opinion provided to reveal a perceived lacuna is neither a personal insult nor a cry for help.

Have a nice day.

My bad, I thought that your original comment was in fact asking for help. However, since you were simply sharing an opinion, it is completely justifiable.
