I have been plodding away working at "converting" the examples in the "C" folder on the Iup site and the changes to the existing version of the library that would make it easier to use.
If you want helpers count me in. I would be happy to help with documentation as well as the above, but someone needs to direct the effort if our (limited?) resources are to be best used.
Thankyou, help is desperately needed.
Greg will be able to set you up so can upload example programs (an area where I have been having problems).
Please send me an e-mail so I have your e-mail address, then I will send you an invite via Bitbucket to join the repository.
The first round of documentation has been uploaded.
- the "reference manual" this requires grunt work at the moment that is not easily delegated
- I have started translating some of the tutorials -- a good place to help (I will get these uploaded so they can be examined)
Thank you for your continued efforts on this. Can we rename "documentation" to just "docs?" The word "documentation" seems too verbose.
I'm also wondering how we can provide online documentation via the Wiki.
Library changes that I have noticed (with the understanding that the wrapper is automated and not be be faulted...)
- needs defaults
- constants with "IUPconstantname" are not being used
- changes to make it more "Euphoric" would be welcome
I'm considering re-writing the wrapper so that it can be smart about ignoring changes, or only wrapping things it hasn't wrapped before.
Feel free to create some issues to address these tasks (list them as either enhancement or proposal).
We need to narrow in on what "more Euphoric" really means. I'm open to this; I'm just not sure what others are looking for.
Any kind of tutorial would be valuable. I can help with formatting in the Creole markup style so don't worry about the details.
Agreed. We can add these to the Wiki.
