I thought it already does! I'll wait till it appears in CVS and
see what you've changed.
Sorry about the difficulty with the patches. This is the
first time I've submitted a real patch to a project.
I have discovered I do have "makepatch", and I'm going to copy your
Perl script to solve the diverging CVS problem.
My next goal will be to provide a temporary fix to the path
configuration for eperl. What I'm intending to do is as follows:
1) Modify configure.in to check for eperl, adding a
configure flag --with-eperl=(eperl executable).
If eperl isn't specified, it will try and locate eperl
using configure's facilities. If it still can't locate
eperl, it will default to /usr/bin/eperl and warn the
user.
This location will be exported to config.h
2) Edit the reports code to use the exported locations.
I realise that this isn't a perfect solution, but until I learn
some scheme (I'm borrowing a book from the library tomorrow)
it's better than the current situation, and will form the basis
of a more permanent solution.
On a similar note, I'll figure out how to configure perl's module
search path to find gnucash.pm (which breaks if you don't install
to /usr)
One question, I read on the list that Rob Browning is working on
replacing the report perl code with scheme code. How much longer
is the perl code likely to hang around for?
