alice-teacher s Digest, Vol 65, Issue 3

[Steven Jang]

It might be too late but I would love to see these added by the Alice team:
1) another way to "say" / "think" but which goes to a log screen OR text
file. This would be a great feature; you can print or write a lot more
information about an Alice story. This can be a way to review dialog
between characters  It can help in debugging an Alice world with many
characters interactions.
2) a way to share procedures / functions. Here you divide a big project up
and have students work on individual characters. They can test out
their small part w/o having to worry about running out of memory. Once
they are happy w their characters and procedures, you can export or copy or
move it to the big Alice world.
3) a way to manage the memory demands? Maybe an equivalent to Java "import"
or c++ "#include". I know this is a lot harder than item 2 which is a lot
harder than item 1 above.

I would be happy to test these features for you.
