Issue 452 in xmonad: Not no tiny code base (anymore)?

Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 452 by navid.za...@googlemail.com: Not no tiny code base (anymore)? http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=452 This is a bug about the website content. I didn’t know where else to put it. The site (e.g. http://xmonad.org/about.html ) states, that the code base is only ~1000 lines of code. While when I click on the link named “policies” on that very page (leading to http://code.haskell.org/xmonad/tests/Properties.hs ), I get a single file that already has 1191 lines. Some of them are empty, yes, and “lines” is not a very good indicator for complexity, also yes, but I think someone has to update those ~1000 line statements. ^^ Anyway, I’m thinking about contributing some pretty extensions, so I was disappointed, as I hoped to be able to read all its code in one evening…

Comment #1 on issue 452 by daniel.w...@gmail.com: Not no tiny code base (anymore)? http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=452 I don't think it's fair to count tests in LoC counts. If we leave out comments and blank lines as well, the source is well under 1000 lines, according to my sed hack: sorghum:~/inst/xmonad/XMonad% sed '/{-/,/-}/d;/^--\s/d;/^\s*$/d' * | wc 668 4520 31346 So, in fact, it's well under 700 lines. =)

Comment #2 on issue 452 by vogt.a...@gmail.com: Not no tiny code base (anymore)? http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=452 There are a couple files outside of the XMonad/ such as XMonad.hs (~40), main.hs (~100) which don't seem to be included in daniel's count.

Comment #3 on issue 452 by navid.za...@googlemail.com: Not no tiny code base (anymore)? http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=452 Hey guys, thanks for clarifying this. Impressive work, plain and simple. :) To be honest, since the tests deliver the guarantees listed in the features, I would perhaps have included them. But since they are not part of what becomes the compiled executable, excluding them is just as correct. Alright. Case closed. I’m off to reading the source. :)
