Make output threadsafe

2

@jacobwilliams @zbeekman I want this library to be thread-safe. It's been designed so that there are no global variables, but I'm thinking that the output operations could cause problems. How...

Future direction for memory management?

4

I was hoping to clarify what your long-term goal is for memory management. #150 suggests that you eventually want to add a `=sink` operator, but that seems to conflict with...

Better organise documentation

3

I know this would be a big job, but it would be really useful if the documentation could be organised better. Function documentation is organised by source file and it...

Return `var` results when indexing

3

It would be handy to add indexing operators with return type `var Tensor[T]` so that the result can be passed to a function for in-place operations. This may relate to...

Automatically overload custom procedures to take tensors and scalars

1

In Fortran it is possible to declare a procedure "elemental", meaning that though it is defined in terms of scalar arguments and return types, it can also be applied element-wise...

Allowing custom allocators for CpuStorage

4

This isn't so much a feature request, more an attempt to gauge the level of interest in working on something like this (plus an offer to help with it). I...

C-style formatting

9

In #14 @milancurcic indicated he'd like to have something along the lines of a `printf` function, like in C. [I suggested](https://github.com/fortran-lang/stdlib/issues/14#issuecomment-567304354) a way to do this: > > C-style formatting...

Collect documentation for multiple versions of code

2

Note entirely sure how we'd do this, but it would be very useful to incorporate links to documentation from old versions, as can be done on ReadTheDocs. I don't think...

Refactor parsing library and split into separate project

4

The current state of the parsing library is... not so great. It's very complicated and confusing and results in _way_ too large a file in [ford/sourceform.py]. However, the functionality it...

CMake has the ability to produce a file called `compile_commands.json` which has become something of a de-facto standard for communicating this information. A file like this can also be produced...
