785693 - GCLI should rename Argument to Token

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(DevTools Graveyard :: Graphic Commandline and Toolbar, defect)

Description

[Joe Walker [:jwalker]]

Just a rename, and easy to do, but will probably touch several lines of code.

The 'sub-classes' of Argument may stop inheriting, and certainly won't change their names.

Hi Joe,

I am interested in working on this. Could you please guide me on getting started with it.....

Thanks.

I'm not sure this is an ideal place to start because it changes a few really deep down parts. If you'd like to have a go, ok, but I'd like to see what's going on, and might be picky about what we include!

I'd suggest that there are several much better places to start, I just went through the bug list and marked a bunch:

This isn't important right now.
