All, I would like to see some changes to gump (especially around package support, around customisation for "personal" gumps, and around statistics -- FOG factor -- depended upon (reverse tree) -- and debugging. Also, Nick Chalko had the awesome idea (random thought) of combining Gump with Forrest for presentation. Finally, I recently relived some of the usual hell of ascertaining a trimmed stack combined w/ packages, and Nick/I both feel the need for automated "missing package determination and download" (perhaps via Ruper/or other).
Much as I know Python gump has gone dormant, I believe it is a better starting place for all these things -- especially given the fact that that it doesn't have batch support "HTML output". (I know it also determines missing projects, so could help there.) As such, I'd really appreciate any pointers that folks could give in order to get me started. I'd like to finish off (and make work) the "gumppy.sh" I started, and see what I can do to make it work for command line (from cron) for batch builds. Although on Linux I only have telnet access, on W2K I can do GUI -- if that helps me get started. I know a GUI was added in front of Gump, could somebody point me to what I need to install for that, and where I get start running it? Any other advice/pointers on python in general, python gump and command line, etc. would be appreciated. BTW: Yes, I understand the risks of investment here, but I think it is worth the shot... regards Adam -- <http://www.try.sybase.com> Experience Sybase Technology ... --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
