[abcusers] jcabc2ps source?

2002-09-23 Thread Guido Gonzato

Hello,

I'd like to provide Win32 binaries for jcabc2ps, and I've been trying to
download the source from Sourceforge. No way. I've also searched on Google -
nothing. I'm not prepared to waste more than 40 seconds on this...

Could anyone point me to the sources? I'll make the binaries available on
the abcplus page.

Ciao,
 Guido =8-)

[abcusers] Typesetting piobaireachd with abc?

2002-09-23 Thread Alasdair McAndrew

Hi there, 
 
Does anyone know of abc software, running under unix/linux, whch allows the 
following: 
 
(1) Grace notes with different time values, such as {ge4d}? 
 
(2) Optional bars in the middle of a part, with the possibility of putting 
text over them such as "Play in line 2 only"? 
 
Then I could get down to typesetting some piobaireachd. 
 
cheers, 
Alasdair

Re: [abcusers] sourceforge homepage

2002-09-23 Thread ANewman110

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?

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.

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.

Re: Jcabc2ps (Was Re: [abcusers] sourceforge homepage)

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.  ;-)

When I started the abc project, you could ftp to the server where the 
webpage files are, but not anymore. You should use `scp' instead. An 
explanation on how to use it can be found here: 
https://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=774&group_id=1. 
This is a document explaining how to start a SF project.

An excerpt, adapted to the abc project and John's username:


5. Setup your group's web site.

I'll assume that you have some sort of web page or site built already 
that you wish to put up on SourceForge to give your group a public face. 
Login to SourceForge using SSH, for example ;

ssh -l chambers abc.sourceforge.net

you will now be in your home directory. All group files are stored in a 
directory structure for each project. The group directory structure is 
split out by the first, then first and second, letters of the project 
name. From here all group files are stored in /home/groups/a/ab/abc. 
Change to this directory. All your web pages are stored in the htdocs 
directory. Going in here will contain index.php, which is a blank page 
that says you haven't uploaded a web page yet. Logout, and copy the 
files for your web page using scp, a program which comes with ssh. For 
example:

scp localfile [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/groups/a/ab/abc/htdocs/

I suggest you gzip up your site, send it in one go using scp, then login 
with ssh and gunzip it.


Hope this helps... Have fun,

bert

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.

How can I make that link point to the current  version?   I'd  prefer
that  someone  else  not "help" me by doing it themselves; that would
just keep me ignorant and the problem would continue.  Best would  be
if  someone  could  point  to  the  sourceforge  documentation that I
haven't been smart enough to find, so I can learn to do it myself.

Sourceforge seems like a good idea.  I wonder how people learn to  do
such  things with it?  The documentation seems a jumbled mess.  I can
wander around it in forever learning things that I don't have use for
right  now.   But  I can never find an answer to the questions that I
have at the moment.

Having the first version of my code presented as  "the"  version  and
not being able to update it is extremely annoying ...
