This is an old revision of the document! Table of ContentsLinked SegmentsWhat is it?The ability to have segments linked together. In its simplest form, linked segments would appear identical - the events in one would appear to be the same as the events in the others to which it was linked. Edits to a linked segment would be reflected in its siblings. It's been discussed to be able to have relative transpositions or time stretches or squashes on the linked segments. It remains to be seen whether these will be implementable in practice. Why implement it?
How do I try it?There's a branch called linked_segments_ian which has the beginnings of a working implementation of this. It will be merged on to the trunk eventually but this is where it is for the time being.
There's some functionality in there for putting relative transpostions on indivitual linked segments, but it's a bit raw and subject to reworking imminently, so I'll spare you a tutorial on that here. How's it done?…(write something about the code implementing the linkage here)… RoadmapTo do:
