Opening a project into ⎕SE #229

Closed PhilLast closed 3 years ago

PhilLast commented 4 years ago

I just discovered that you can open a project into ⎕SE.

It can be opened; acre continues to think it's open; but changes to it can't be saved. Whether it's because I've been too strict or too lax in some respect I don't currently know. Presumably somewhere I'm permitting a different set of valid names:

      ]createproject arthur #.arthur
#.arthur
      ]openproject arthur ⎕se.arthur
Please wait - Reading 1 file from .../acreProjects/arthur
⎕se.arthur

It can't be created in ⎕SE

      ]createproject galahad ⎕se.galahad
! Invalid namespace name
* Command Execution Failed:

But changing ProjectSpace in the config to point to a ⎕SE space makes acre open it there by default.

At present I see no reason either to enhance or suppress this "feature". But it seems that it might prove useful to someone in some context which is why I'm pointing it out.

Since reminded that:

Dyalog APL/W-64 Version 18.0.38770

      )clear
Cannot perform operation when # is referenced by session namespace.
⎕SE.inscribe...AcreConfig

the AcreConfig namespace is a child of # so this entangles # and ⎕SE disabling )CLEAR, )LOAD and probably other stuff.

Could be remedied but only on request.
