2014-08-29 Thread Derek Lamb
The one downside will be short text ads at the bottom of every list email. But other than that I think it is smart to move them. While we're at it, does it also make sense to import the pre-2005 archives? We would have in one place complete archives from pdl-porters back to 1997 February and

ditto on both counts. I have a Virtual Box set up that could do this, if I could (take the time to) figure out the packaging part of it. On Oct 25, 2014, at 12:21 PM, Chris Marshall devel.chm...@gmail.com wrote: That would be great. I'm pretty sure I never got one from you. Thanks, Chris.

Re: [Pdl-porters] Proposal on how to make PDL related doc available at matacpan.org

2014-12-19 Thread Derek Lamb
FWIW, generating documentation on the release manager's machine has been basically the method for generating the docs at pdl.perl.org http://pdl.perl.org/ for some time: once Chris releases a new version, I build it, compiling documentation for all the optional-but-included modules, and upload

[Pdl-porters] typecasting in MOD macro

2015-02-17 Thread Derek Lamb
At the very beginning of Basic/Ops/ops.pd there are currently two MOD macros to define the modulus operator. BU_MOD works on byte and ushort piddles, whereas MOD works on all other types. In both of those, but particularly worrisome in MOD, there are C typecasts to (int). I think this is the

Derek That's a bit odd, as you say the subroutine IS defined in the XS.pm file loaded. I am wondering if this is triggered by something funny in your ~/.perldlrc file? Does perl -e 'use PDL' work? Karl On 6 Jan 2015, at 10:52 am, Derek Lamb de...@boulder.swri.edu wrote: Hi
