                   JOURNAL FOR TUESDAY 17TH SEPTEMBER, 2013
______________________________________________________________________________

SUBJECT: Loader rework almost done
   DATE: Tue 17 Sep 22:28:22 BST 2013

Spent most of the evening completing the clean up of the recent loader changes.

Spent the rest of the evening trying to put together a coherent set of patches
and commits :( Hopefully with tomorrow being WolfMUD Wednesday I'll get
everything into the dev branch and finally push some more changes public.

I really, really, *MUST* get into the habit if making smaller changes and
committing them.

The trouble is you work on a bit of code and that change requires some other
changes to work. Those changes in turn need more changes. Before you know it
you've got small intertwined and interdependent changes all over the place.
Then you have to sit down and break everything apart so it can be applied in
commits containing a few small patches at a time. In theory you should be able
to checkout *ANY* commit and have the code compile and run.

Between now and tomorrow I shall do some pondering and see if I can come up
with some simple way of sorting my commits/patches out...
