Topic: Format Lean

Is the library 'Format lean' here still in active development? I can't seem to get it to work on windows. After I follow the steps, no binaries are produced :(
Eyesomorphic (Mar 19 2024 at 22:14):
If there's any newer method of performing the same thing (Converting a lean file with comments into an interactable html file or similar), I'd love to hear about them!

Your link is misformatted. You meant https://github.com/leanprover-community/format_lean
Kim Morrison (Mar 19 2024 at 22:19):
This is definitely not actively developed. :-)
Kim Morrison (Mar 19 2024 at 22:20):
In particular it is for Lean 3, which is end of life.

Ah thank you, I didn't notice it was Lean 3! Would you happen to know of any Lean 4 alternatives?

I think this project was never really completed, but @Patrick Massot will know best what state it is in
Patrick Massot (Mar 20 2024 at 01:40):
It was completed in the sense that it did everything I need it to do. But it was indeed a Lean 3 thing. Verso should become a Lean 4 version of this and much more.

Is this the same project as the one you demoed here? I thought it was but maybe this is something else
Mario Carneiro (Mar 20 2024 at 01:52):
As far as I know this project was never properly released
Patrick Massot (Mar 20 2024 at 01:52):
No, this has nothing to do with this.

We are talking about a quick hack I wrote 5 years ago for my lecture notes.
Patrick Massot (Mar 20 2024 at 01:53):
It’s the tool that created https://www.imo.universite-paris-saclay.fr/~patrick.massot/mdd154/
Patrick Massot (Mar 20 2024 at 01:53):
(go to the bottom of that web page)
Mario Carneiro (Mar 20 2024 at 01:54):
ah yes, I can see why you say verso would replace it now
Patrick Massot (Mar 20 2024 at 01:54):
It shows Lean code with human generated comments and the tactic state
