Re: [orion-dev] Read-only Orion?

[John J Barton <johnjbarton@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ok I tried this out. It works! Though I got some surprising results.

Try this:
1) Open http://blog.johnjbarton.com:8080/navigate/table.html#/file/D/?depth=1
2) Surprise: you don't have to login. Click Plugins near the top right corner,
3) Put http://blog.johnjbarton.com:8080/file/A/nonymousPlugin.html in
the box, Hit "Install".
Surprise: this plugin is not remembered by the server.
4) Open http://blog.johnjbarton.com:8080/navigate/table.html#/file/D/?depth=1
5) Surprise: After you select a js file to visit, I guess the login
prompt will go away.
6) In the tall gray box on the left side you will see a dark gray
arrow. Use it to select "JavaScript Structural Outline".

Surprise: You have to repeat 6 after 5 because of:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=359160

I found a couple of bugs in Nonymous and a couple in Orion just
looking around in the libraries.
