Clearifying labels in an extension's UI are now defined in INX like:
<_param name="cmdlinename" type="description">The description</_param>The external program, e.g. python, is called with a list of commandline options, among which:
--cmdlinename="The description"I think this is not desired and that there are no cases where this cmdline option is actually used. funcplot.inx for example has a huge description parameter. The description isn't really a parameter; should we recode this to enable a syntax like:
<_description>The description</_description>Or <label> or something else. (underscores to make it translatable, which is sometimes not necessary, e.g. in the case of funcplot.inx's help function listing) The easier solution is to add a check whether the param is a description and not add it to the cmdline. This would also benefit the notebook parameter whose cmdline text is also often superfluous (the cmdline specification of which notebook tab was selected). Implementing this is peanuts.
Ideas?
Sounds reasonable to me.
