http://twext.cc/dev/php has a mess of php3 code done 8 years ago..

plugin spec wants to update only the essential parts of the old php3 version:

• php3_core
• api_php3

before even bothering with users, multiple languages, etc, current focus is make the tool work, or plugin to new api:

1. basic twexter code (demo and xml demo), then plugin:
2. lyric chunkster

the new twexter uses new tools like css, twexml, javascript.. old php3 twexter basic tool was show.inc (i think).. old tool doesn't do css etc so how can it help us? it may help us when we do line breaks but now we only do lyric format

i don't think we had any machine translation working at all.. anyway if this helps, good.. but please remember:

old code above not worth re-doing:

• new twexter works with modern tools
• new UI much simpler
• plugin starts much simpler

exceptions:

• some old tools may help lyricc now and line breaks later
