Clearcase scripting: dynamic vs snapshot views [code attached]

[GoogleCodeExporter]

This is more of a discussion starter than an issue.

I am really thankful that you chose to continue developing this plugin. I find 
the ClearCase scripting functionality really useful.

However, as I work mainly with snapshot views, the base Clearcase.js file is 
not working for me.

I found a version for snapshot views here: 
http://sourceforge.net/p/notepad-plus/discussion/482781/thread/b83fde50

I took that as a baseline, added "Open previous version" and "Find checkouts" 
menu items, made sure all of them work on snapshot views and added keyboard 
hints, so you could check out a file by Pressing Alt+a, o.

Here is what I've got, maybe someone would find it useful:

The question I have is:
What are your thoughts on integrating both versions, for dynamic and snapshot 
views?
I see both of them share a lot of common code, would it make sense to detect if 
the file is in a dynamic view, and activate the dynamic functionality, or a 
snapshot view, and activating the alternative implementation.

I am willing to investigate if the above is possible, but I don't have an easy 
way to debug what I'm writing. Do you have any hints on how I could easily 
debug the scripts?

Thank you,
Arcadie.

Hello Arcadie,
I don't know if it is possible to debug the scripts running inside of jN. I 
tried Windows Script 
Debugger(http://www.microsoft.com/de-de/download/details.aspx?id=1757). But it 
did not work for jN. It works for IE. Obviously it is necessary to implement 
something additional to get it working inside of jN.
