Re: Installation script
Hi Thomas, Making sure different applications and frameworks play well together was/is my main motivation for GSDE. If you want to see how services / scripting can (or should) all work together, GSDE is probably the only place right now. Support for NSDataLink across all applications is the next ;-) ...there is a lot of cool stuff you can do with it, like using GORM to create simple UIs for shell scripts Great for creating app wrappers with GNUstep menus and all that stuff. Or display man pages or gsdoc in the HelpViewer using GNUstep filters. :-) However, in order to make it all work, GSDE has to make a lot of assumptions and not everyone is going to be happy with the choices made. Therefore, it is not substitute for more generic build/installation script as I explained earlier. The upside is that it makes finding and fixing bugs easier. You have all the sources available, everything is configured in the same way, etc. Thanks, Ondrej On 2024-03-11 12:13:58 +0100 Thomas wrote: > Hi Ondrej, > > ok, sounds logical. > One point: Couldn´t it be useful for the normal unexperienced LINUX user to > include his „normal“ application menue path from Debian so that his > experience wouldn´t be so strange as he find all standard apps he know > (LibreOffice etc.)?

Re: Installation script
Hi, Thomas wrote: By the way I have some Questions;-). The Service parts from the main menue (GWorkspace) don´t work at all, right (for instance starting a new task in Simple Agenda)? Is it a task for Smalltalk (Steptalk)? How can it be fixed? In Gorm there is the effect that Gorm completely shuts down when you test an unsafed project and try to end this test with shortcut #q…. don´t know the reason. Also the Icons a a little misplaced in the windows….. a bit off-topic from the scripts... but maybe not totally. Services are passed over to the corresponding applications. I only have two installed right now and they work for me in GWorkspace. Ink opens file and for directories, Terminal opens shell there. First doubt would be the provider of the service more than GWorkspace / NSWorkspace. Before all that, run "make_services" again and restart GWorkspace and see if it helps. If that fixes it, make_services should be run better from the scripts you are using. Riccardo

Re: Installation script
Hi Thomas
Thank you very much for the notes.
It could be good to report these little bugs to the respective applications:

Do other Service parts work? If not: GWorkspace bug

1. Report bugs including your OS, your gnustep version and your (whatever app)
version details, steps to reproduce, and screenshots
2. Second step might be installing latest git versions from upstream and
manually compiling them to see if the bug has already been fixed. If not, then
as you have source code available on your machine, you may be able to fix some
of these bugs as comfortable.
3. Note there is live chat available for assistance at Libera Chat,
http://libera.chat One Click Connect >>
https://web.libera.chat/gamja/?channels=#gnustep <<< may want to join and keep
the window open, and monitor the chat, for a couple days to catch someone awake

Re: Installation script
Hi Nikolaus, GSDE install scripts go far beyond just installing GNUstep libraries and build environment. Its purpose is to provide complete desktop environment so those scripts pull in a lot of dependencies, etc. In addition, these scripts are very "opinionated" as to how everything should be setup and come together. For example: - hard requirement for X11 - it comes with its fork of WindowMaker as WM - /Application, /Libraries type of directory layout - patches for GNUstep libraries Considering all of this, dedicated build scripts for GNUstep is still very much needed, especially if you want to do cross-platform development.

Re: Installation script
I didn't rewrite the scripts; I modified scripts by @plaurent, which I had already used, to be more generic. I encountered @plaurent's scripts before encountering yours, so I had been already familiar with them.

Re: Installation script
Hi Ethan,Very nice — I will definitely try this on some distros.
