Jcabc2ps (Was Re: [abcusers] sourceforge homepage)

2002-09-23 Thread Don Whitener

I've been meaning to ask, and this reminds me... Is there a compiled for 
Windows (32-bit) version of jcabc2ps available anywhere?  I have searched, 
but all I can find is source code.  Unfortunately, I haven't the tools at 
the moment to handle it.

Well, my abc2ps clone (jcabc2ps) is  listed  on  the  sourceforge.abc
page,  and  I'd  love  to update it to my latest version.  I was even
given admin privs a year or so back, and since then I've spent a  lot
of  spare time learning about sourceforge.  Lots of good stuff there.
But I've never found any information telling me how  to  update  that
link to my code.

This is extremely frustrating. I've gotten email from people who have
downloaded  it  and  installed it, and found all sorts of things that
don't work. I have to point them to my personal site where I have the
latest version.  And I apologize for the version on sourceforge.

Not to my knowledge. ;-)

I wonder if sourceforge's compile farm include Windows  machines?   I
keep  hearing  rumors  that  it's actually possible to access NT-type
Windows machines from the Net.  I  also  keep  hearing  language  not
suitable  for  tender  ears  from  people whose job involves managing
networks of such machines.

(Most of my work is done on unix/linux machines that I've never  seen
or  touched.   So I probably have a distorted view of how such things
work out there in what passes for the Real World.  ;-)

I've had a look at the sourceforge ABC pages a few times, but find it
really confusing to get around. I'm not sure I've even managed to ever get
to any of the software.

I've only managed to download the source through cvs (which is probably
easiest if you already know cvs).  If you follow the link to CVS Repository
at the bottom of the Projects page, you end up at 
 http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=6137 , 
which gives directions for cvs'ing the source.

Re: [abcusers] sourceforge homepage

Why don't we just use the summary page?  I think its much easier both from a user and 
administration standpoint.  You can just zip/tar the images and put the zip file in 
the summary page.  CVS is good if you have a lot of active developers, but that's not 
really the case here.

There are a bunch of dead links on the summary page, which makes it pretty confusing 
at present.  I'd like to get the latest CVS versions of the various tools and put them 
on the summary page for easy access.  Any objections?
