Too many interfaces?
I'm now planning to have the following user interfaces:
- guest,
- basic,
- advanced,
- expert,
- master and
- power.
This will allow users to learn the Ark in easy stages. Power is the old interface, but without wasting space on help or command lists. Master uses a command line interface like power, but with a list of helps down the left side.
Guest, basic, advanced and expert then are all click interfaces without a command line. Expert will have most of the commands, some commands and options being left out as they are best handled with a command line interface.
Guest is browsing at its simplest, while basic will support creation, maintenance and reorganization. Advanced then introduces namespace management.
And yes, things are progressing nicely. Only a few more days now until a first release of basic. ;-)
