Bob adds a 'permalink' icon to the document actions of any Plone 2.1.x content type (if based on Archetypes). The icon/link is handy for copying the permanent link in order to paste it in another document, in Plone or anywhere else.

In Belgium, the one who drives and doesn't drink is commonly called Bob.
He is the one who brings everybody home without damage (see the official Bob web site).

Bob (for Plone) adds a 'permalink' icon to the document actions of any Plone 2.1.x content type (if based on Archetypes).

A permanent link points to an object in a CMS wherever it is located, it keeps being valid even if the object has been moved inside the portal.

The icon/link is handy for copying the permanent link in order to paste it in another document, in Plone or anywhere else.

The link is based on the kupu way to link objects in Plone, by using the Archetypes UID. Its main advantage is to provide a URL free from any request parameter, it's a full path.

The URL to be copied is formatted like this (example):
http://portal_url/resolveuid/deca8482b26a529274f951d36bdc6326

Remark: If the current object is the default view of its parent node, its permalink is the one of its parent.
