Simple application configuration for Julia

appconf.jl's Issues

Unicode support

In order to allow unicode variables to be used I had to change
the findeq function in AppConf.jl by a minor amount.

We just use the chr2ind() function to make sure the index we use corresponds to
the position i the unicode string.
Like so:

function findeq(ln::AbstractString)
for i = 1:length(ln)
c = chr2ind(ln, i);
if ln[c] == '='
return c
end
end
return -1
end

This way parameters such as
γ= 1.66667

now also work.

From my testing so far this seems to work well .

Package uses AbstractString, which is not available on Julia 0.3

Any user that intalls this package on Julia 0.3 will not get a working version of the package, because of the use of the Julia 0.4 AbstractString. One solution would be to use the Compat.jl package so the package works on both, and then tagging a new release.

Info about upcoming removal of packages in the General registry

As described in https://discourse.julialang.org/t/ann-plans-for-removing-packages-that-do-not-yet-support-1-0-from-the-general-registry/ we are planning on removing packages that do not support 1.0 from the General registry. This package has been detected to not support 1.0 and is thus slated to be removed. The removal of packages from the registry will happen approximately a month after this issue is open.

To transition to the new Pkg system using Project.toml, see https://github.com/JuliaRegistries/Registrator.jl#transitioning-from-require-to-projecttoml.
To then tag a new version of the package, see https://github.com/JuliaRegistries/Registrator.jl#via-the-github-app.

If you believe this package has erroneously been detected as not supporting 1.0 or have any other questions, don't hesitate to discuss it here or in the thread linked at the top of this post.
