Can't see download instructions for a submitted exercise #4259

Thanks. That might be a good item to add to a FAQ. I got unstuck by doping out how the exercises were named. I opened the ticket for the next person in this situation. I don't want to be prescriptive about an implementation, because I'm not a user experience person and I don't know the user community. I was stuck, and I looked in all the places I could think of. Is there a way to make the right next step available on the site? |
Still there should be a copy-button, that makes it easy to get the download command, similar to how it is already for a fresh assignment. It just consumes unnecessary time to either guess the exercises slug from the name or selectively copying the UUID from the URL. |
The download instructions aren't visible once you've submitted something for an exercise.
I'm coming back to
exercism
after a few years away. (The new site looks great!) There was still an open exercise, but I deleted the files off my laptop a long time ago. I was able to figure out most of the command from another exercise, but it took several attempts to dope out the exercise name for "word count" - turns out you put a dash between words.The migration instructions expect you to have the old files handy, and use underscores for spaces.
It would be handy if there were a way to see the download command again.
