Would it be possible to create a cookbook API? That might allow clever folks to create tools of their own for sorting, categorizing, and editing recipes.

Some notes on an API:

Some "quick search" function would be nice too.
One text box where we enter part of name and book contest are filtered by it (ie "lws" and we have listed only lws-ing scripts).

I can not get the recipes to make to the program. It says to look for them in the cookbook but they never show up. Any one want to message me with a possible fix?

You need to be logged in on site and in game and you need to have working chat connection.
Also you have to be in "old" interface.

agree with and adding this post http://fold.it/portal/node/990906
Some recipe descriptions decide to popup to the left... and you cant read any of it in the game

I think this is a character length issue. It seems that recipes with long descriptions have this problem.

I came up with a good one a while ago:
Recipe Roster / Scheduler / Timetable

You'll be happy to know that we have a new person joining the Foldit team, rileya, and this is their first task!

Excellent! Many hands make for light work. Anyone who commits their time to helping make Foldit a better game will be greatly appreciated.

Sorry for the double post, but I have come up with another idea.

"Last recipe run" Cookbook field

I think it would be beneficial to be able to arrange what order we have our recipes. It should also be fairly easy to implement

#1 is fixed.

Nope, it is NOT foxed :( (latest dev update)
1. run selection interface
2a. delete recipe -> blank space, no name in place of deleted recipe. It should rebuild book instantly
2b. create new recipe, save as -> it is not visible in cookbook, even if it is shared.
3. Switch to old interface -> everything is ok...
