G'day All,

This morning, I saw in "Best Nodes" a link to "Re^12: Perl XS binding to a struct with an array of chars*". I looked in RAT to get an idea of the activity in this thread: there were a number at "Re^9" but nothing deeper. I went to the Page Settings (bottom of the RAT page) to change the maximum depth but the selection only provides 0-10.

Scrolling through (the very long) "Perl XS binding to a struct with an array of chars*", I found a couple at "Re^10" as well as the "Re^12" (from Best Nodes). So, I haven't lost access to any content; however, it would've been preferable to get a high-level view via RAT.

Can that "maximum depth" selection be extended? I don't know if there are other factors involved, so I don't know what to suggest beyond arbitrary ranges such as 0-20 or 0-99. Alternatively, could there be a "no depth limit" checkbox? I imagine a text entry box would be another option, but I suspect that might require a fair bit of validation and other work which pmdev's may not want to undertake (although, I'm very much guessing about that).

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
