Firstly, Happy St. Patrick's Day!, from Dublin, Ireland
Screenshots are here, thumbnailed and captioned: http://www.rob.md/projects/plucker/2002_03_17/ Comments are welcomed. There is a Todo in CVS which can tell status of certain things also. Unfortunately, I introduced a bug in the main dialog of the GTK binary the day before Michael left, so a GTK test package couldn't be created yet. I sent away for some ISOs and will eventually have a second 86 computer ready for GTK dev. An OSX laptop from the college will become available this week. A Windows binary is available for download here: http://www.rob.md/projects/plucker/2002_03_14/plucker_desktop.zip For Windows installation, unzip the zip with directories intact and put everything in a plucker_desktop dir in the Plucker Directory, so that have a dir structure similar to this, if installed Plucker to C:\Program Files\Plucker\: C:\Program Files\Plucker\plucker_desktop\plucker-desktop.exe C:\Program Files\Plucker\plucker_desktop\resource C:\Program Files\Plucker\plucker_desktop\resource\xrc\main_dialog.xrc C:\Program Files\Plucker\plucker_desktop\langs (and so on). Then click plucker-desktop.exe to start. This is pre-alpha. It may not work at all, may work partially, may work, or may cause your computer to catch fire. In addition to the GTK (by Michael), 3 Windows systems have been tested: --A Windows95B with Palm Desktop 3.0.1: works well, just the polish stuff in TODO yet to do. --A Windows2000 with no Palm Desktop installed: works well, but assert mentions a static label assert (perhaps the empty label at the bottom of the main dialog), first run mentions that can't create a template folder (then works fine after), an exclusion dialog issue, and channel manager list should be made longer so main dialog > advanced tab doesn't clip (or, this custom widget should be made to autosize, which would be a better solution). --A Windows95B German version with Palm Desktop (by Dirk): Works poorly: reading of user.dat goes out of sync, asserts of window rect size, and then won't initialize. This is a debug build, similar to PalmOS debug roms, in that there are asserts to warn when things aren't programmed as they should be, but not all things will cause a non- debug version to stop. If you give it a go, and want to send feedback for asserts/crashes, most useful is to send back the debugging info leading up to it. There is some bugs that need to be crushed yet, and a test on different systems is probably the best way to find them. A freeware viewer to log debug messages can be downloaded here: http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/debugview.shtml Best wishes, Robert
