Re: Is there interest in an update to the List of Plugins?

Hi Lin,

that's right the Leximation site: http://leximation.com/tools/ is great.
I don't know is this site complete. 

In the past we had also list our TOOLBOX and FINALYSER 
tools, plug-ins and extendscripts on the frameusers site.

Important, that vendors and list admin can update the list.
Additional, I mean it would be great if one could add comments, 
that would be a community of links, information and comments.

Re: Is there interest in an update to the List of Plugins?

2012-07-06 Thread Scott Prentice

Actually, the Tool Search page at leximation.com is here ..

http://leximation.com/toolsearch/

I do try to keep it up to date, but I'm sure it's a bit behind. It's set 
up so that tool vendors/developers can update/add their own listings, 
but it looks like I may need to send some emails to encourage people to 
update things. Although this database lives on my site, the Tool Search 
area is completely vendor-neutral .. my tools are listed but not 
featured more prominently than any others.


This database contains listings for FM plugins, FrameScripts, 
ExtendScripts, as well as other potentially useful tools and utilities. 
I'm happy to add most anything that's suggested.


Lin .. when I set this up 8+ years ago, I used your spreadsheet as a 
starting point, so at this point it's likely that the database is a 
superset of your list. If you wanted to edit/update my database 
directly, I can set you up with access to do so (other than the entries 
that are directly managed by vendors), but if you'd prefer to maintain 
your own spreadsheet, I completely understand.


Please contact me off-list (or on) if you have any questions.

Cheers,

...scott

Did you really? I had no idea. I'm flattered. :)

I've thought for the last couple of years at least that your site was
more complete than my list, and it's got that lovely search tool, too.
My list was handy when your site didn't exist, but I have no need to
compete. It never occurred to me that people might still be interested
until someone asked me if I'd updated it lately. Then they wanted to
know why not, and I referred them to your site.

I suppose it's still useful if anyone wants on offline reference and,
as I said, if enough people ask I'll update and find a way to
distribute. So far, only two people have asked (and I think one
thought I was offering actual updates to the plugins, not to a PDF
document). I'm betting most people are getting their information from
you.

If you're sure you trust me in your database then, sure, I'm willing
to give updating things a shot (although I warn you, it'll probably be
about as timely as my original update was ...). At the least, one of
us needs to update the ones that are no longer available, such as
Bruce Foster's plugins ...

I'm not really a database jockey, though, and I've never made a web
site, so I hope you have good documentation somewhere!

I did have a list of my own, but validated against your list since it 
was so complete!

The system is set up to be managed through your browser, so no database 
or coding knowledge is needed. There is certainly room for improvements, 
so any observations and suggestions are more than welcome.


I'll send you the info off-list and we can see where it goes!

Framers .. stay tuned for a more up-to-date tools list!

Cheers,

...scott

RE: Is there interest in an update to the List of Plugins?

Hi Lin,

I'm definitely interested in updated plug-ins. I'm still using ones that I got 
with the Frame training I did with Shlomo many moons ago.

Lisa

Subject: Is there interest in an update to the List of Plugins?

Hi folks,

As some of you may remember, a number of years ago I created a list of
FrameMaker plugins and utilities that I shared with the framers' lists
because, at the time, there wasn't a single place to find that
information. Jeremy Griffith and Shlomo Perets were kind enough to
make that list available on their websites, and I think it's still
there.

The last update I made was about 3 years ago, so it's pretty out of date.

Is there interest in my making another update? There are web sites out
there now (Leximation, for example, and failing that, Google) that
have a reasonably complete listing of plugins, so I'm not certain
there's a real need; however, if enough people ARE interested I'll
update it and ask Jeremy and Shlomo if they'd be willing to host the
update again, or I can just send it on request.

Hi, Lin!  We created a new Web site for Mif2Go 
as of May 1, and your list is posted on the
Forums there under framemaker Plugins.  To see
and post on the Forums, people must create an 
account on the site; it's free, and we won't
email you.  We didn't require that at first,
but the spambots quickly taught us our lesson,
as hundreds of announcements for, ah, ph ar ma
items, appeared within a few hours.  ;-)

It's still on the old site too, at:
  http://www.omsys.com/resources/fm_utilities_all_v3.1.pdf
but that site will go away entirely soon.

We'd be delighted, of course, to host an update.
Also, if you want, you can create a blog on the 
new (Drupal) site; blog entries are publically 
readable, but only site members can comment.

Thanks for your good work!
