repository

You can view my current projects in hierarchical form here.

Most of my code is stored as a darcs repository. You can check the code out anonymously. To do this you must first install darcs. Here is an example of how to checkout Yi:

        $ darcs get http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~dons/code/yi

If you have login access to CSE, then you can also checkout the code securely over ssh:

        $ darcs get you@cse.unsw.edu.au:/web/dons/code/yi

And you are done! To update code to the latest revision of an already checked out repository:

        $ darcs pull

You should contact me if you wish to submit patches. The best way is with darcs:

        $ darcs send
