Revisions

And so BinRock acquires yet another useless feature. I've added revision tracking; now when I edit a post, it remembers the changes, and you can now view the changes made between any two revisions of an entry. Of course, it's pretty uninteresting for now because there is only one revision available for all the posts made until now.

So the question is, what good is this? I don't know. Nobody cares about seeing what mistakes I've corrected. It's another of those features I add just because I like the idea of it, and want to see if I can do it, regardless of its usefulness. The next improvement should be a little more worthwhile though. I'm going to fix all the form processing scripts so that if you don't enter all the required fields, it will save your input and warn you nicely, rather than yelling at you for your stupidity and throwing away what you typed just to add insult to injury.
