Thanks for your clarification i want try to write a guide for hbmk I plan to write in Italian then i try request a translation somebody have suggestion about which tool use I think write in open office 3 and search a good layout for manual
Which feature are planed for hbmk in 1.1? I have still one suggestion Having a simple interactive mode launching hbmk without parameter see a list of prg,hbp,c,rc select with space one or more and press button compile Simple and easy but will be a bridge between people command line driven and gui driven hbmk -? for actual help that can be read also with f1 from interactive mode can be used a memoedit to read actual help with scrolling row? harbour with this little feature will be more interactive hbp extension will be associated to hbmk.exe by setup? hbp will be ready to support user defined extension ignoring parameter external to his group? In somebody in future made a visual extension will extend using hbmk 2009/2/16 Viktor Szakáts <[email protected]>: > Hi Massimo, > >> >> Harbour will have the defnition of a project >> With hbp web have in harbour an file with structure of project >> >> Will hbmk adopt as format of file xhbp of xmate? > > Nope, but hbmk could probably be extended to read these > files and try to use as much as possible from them. > I'm personally largely uninterested in spending time to > create code to process these file formats (which I don't > know).
