Dear Father, I've just updated the page according to your precious remarks, it will be online in about 2 hours.
1) In #5, you may want to capitalize "terminal" to make it clear that Terminal is a program.
Ok.
2) Between #5 and #6, you forgot to include Mr. Martin's two instructions: $ sudo port install autoconf $ sudo port install automake
autoconf and automake should be installed automatically if you install libtool. That's what I saw on the macports page, but I cannot try...
3) In #6, I only followed the instruction that you gave me, which was "sudo port install libtool flex bison libxml", which is slightly different from what you have on the website. I do not know if that will make a difference.
Indeed. I changed the instructions on the page to have "sudo port install libtool flex bison libxml2", which I think is best.
4) The "download page" link for the stable version is still taking you to the "gregorio-2.0-universal-OSX.pkg.zip" version, which was last modified on 28 Sep 2010. Mr. Martin had said that I should not have installed that, so I am not sure if that is the correct stable version or not. In other words, is that where you want the "download page" link for the stable version to go?
I'll release soon Gregorio 2.3, it will be the next stable release, but yes, the old one is rather old...
5) The instructions to get the SVN (SVN or SVN version? Doesn't the VN in SVN mean "version"?) are not as clear to me as Mr. Martin's, i.e., Create a place to put the gregorio (Is gregorio capitalized?) files, e.g., ~/Documents/gregorio $ mkdir -p ~/Documents/gregorio $ cd ~/Documents/gregorio Now get the gregorio source: $ svn co svn://svn.gna.org/svn/gregorio/trunk The first time I saw that, I had no idea what I was supposed to do with "svn co svn://svn.gna.org/svn/gregorio/trunk". There was no command line prompt to tell me that it was something I was supposed to type into Terminal. Maybe that is more obvious to other people, but it was not to me when I first saw it. The compilation instructions did make more sense because they had the command line prompt.
Ok, I've added it too.
6) The update instructions are a bit confusing. Mr. Martin's instructions say to do this: $ cd ~/Documents/gregorio/trunk $ svn up In the instructions on the website, it says, "…go in the directory containing the source file, make svn up and recompile…". Since you previously had me run "make" in the compilation, the instructions look like you want me to do this: $ make svn up It appears that "svn" is a command/program, so I think you want to say "run svn up" or "do svn up", as you used earlier; "make svn up" does not make sense to me in English. I can tell that "make" and "svn up" are in different fonts, but I still think it is confusing. The only reason it made sense to me was because I was already familiar with Mr. Martin's instructions, so I already knew what you were trying to say.
Ok, fixed too. When it will be online, can you check and tell me if it's ok for you?
Also I've added the instructions for TeXLive (or MacTeX) download. Thank you, -- Elie _______________________________________________ Gregorio-users mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/gregorio-users
