dchandler 762f923154 When problem glyphs are encountered, we handle it a little better now by
adding achens before the problem glyphs in our truncated output.
2003-06-23 02:04:31 +00:00
dchandler 59c398f1ce Added --find-some-non-tm and --find-all-non-tm modes to the converter to
help ensure worry-free TM->TMW conversions.

dchandler 64e47d96db Major improvements to the documentation for the command-line converter. 2003-06-21 22:28:14 +00:00
dchandler a96e14a245 Tibbibl does still use JDOM, so add this back. 2003-06-19 02:12:37 +00:00
dchandler 9040f9b1a1 Removed cruft; mentions JUnit in another place. In 28 hours, these
changes should automagically appear on http://thdltools.sf.net.
2003-06-19 00:45:06 +00:00
dchandler 8c2622d5b9 The http://thdltools.sf.net web pages are now updated every four hours.
Due to sf.net difficulties, they may be 28 hours behind until September 2003,
however.

Updated the WylieWord/Diacritics info.
2003-06-17 02:48:43 +00:00
dchandler 7c7d57ecd7 Renamed TMW_RTF_TO_THDL_WYLIE TibetanConverter. Updated
docs.
2003-06-15 20:27:56 +00:00
dchandler eb7013dc39 TMW_RTF_TO_THDL_WYLIE now converts TM->TMW. 2003-06-08 22:43:43 +00:00
dchandler 5506510c68 The Wylie 'M' used to map to TMW7.91, when it should map to TMW7.90.
I've fixed that.

I've also added a couple of Unicode mappings to give a flavor for how
multi-codepoint mappings will be represented.

TM->TMW conversion takes about 1 second per thousand glyphs on my
PIII-550.

Now linking to BabelPad.

dchandler 414ab0ded8 TM->TMW and TMW->TM conversion in RTF is now supported. I've
noticed that formatting is mostly OK but sometimes gets bungled slightly.
I tried everything I could think of, and now I'm passing the buck to Java's
RTF support.

TMW_RTF_TO_THDL_WYLIE (now misnamed) support TMW->TM
conversion (but not TM->TMW).  There is an automated test case for a
TMW->TM conversion.

I have full confidence in this conversion.  Even the smallest glitch in the core
functionality (not formatting) would surprise me.

dchandler 3216db25c9 Updated TMW_RTF_TO_THDL_WYLIE documentation. 2003-05-18 17:18:27 +00:00
dchandler ad5337ebdf Added poor documentation for TMW_RTF_TO_THDL_WYLIE. 2003-05-18 15:18:31 +00:00
dchandler 5d090cfaa8 Updated the instructions on updating the thdltools web pages. 2003-05-15 00:50:45 +00:00
eg3p ee840fe816 I have embedded the SourceForge documentation into
THDL's web design and menu system. At the design
protocols for the THDL web site are a bit messy, but
they are being cleaned up and hopefully will eventually
emerge in a way that makes them easier for non-THDL
staff like David C. to make sense of.

dchandler dcc862feeb Added links to JUnit Javadocs. 2003-04-13 16:58:18 +00:00
dchandler 01afd44d98 Added a nightly build from April 12, 2003 to the website as an experiment. 2003-04-13 02:14:48 +00:00
dchandler afde3fe2a3 Double spacing so I don't hate to read it.
Mentions how to maintain WylieWord.
2003-03-22 03:07:57 +00:00
dchandler 5f2039396f Removed most mentions of QuillDriver and Savant from this file. 2003-03-22 02:53:35 +00:00
dchandler 5b5a6aab25 You may no longer put xml-apis.jar, xercesImpl.jar, or xalan.jar in
Jskad/extensions.  If you're lazy, you can move them to
extensions/drop-ins, but the correct thing to do is to move x*.jar to
$ANT_HOME/lib [next to vamp.jar, if you're already set up for Java Web
Start builds].  This is a side effect of improving the nightly builds.

Nightly builds now feature an HTML summary of the JUnit test results,
a datestamp, and full API docs in two flavors.

If you use a patched vamp.jar [e-mail me] that can run when an X11
display is not available (there is not an analogous problem for
Windows servers, I suspect), all you have to do to put up a nightly
builds site is to set up CVS access so that no password is requires
using SSH public-key crypto (sf.net documents how to do so well) and
then use the following daily cron job on your Unix box:

#! /bin/sh
renice +19 -p $$ >/dev/null 2>&1
su -l joe-user /bin/sh -c /var/www/thdl/nightly/doTheBuild.sh

where joe-user is an unprivileged user who has installed Ant properly
(see the updated BuildSystems.html on the developer's site off of
thdltools.sf.net) and set himself up a Jskad sandbox with a Fonts
sandbox underneath it in, e.g., /var/www/thdl/nightly/Jskad.  Here's
doTheBuild.sh:

#! /bin/sh
JSKAD=/var/www/thdl/nightly/Jskad
DEST=/var/www/thdl/nightly/builds
HISTORY=/var/www/thdl/nightly/history
DATE=`date`
if test ! -d $DEST; then \
     echo "$DEST does not exist ($DATE)." >> history; exit 1; fi
(cd $JSKAD && ant dc-nightly-build \
 && rm -fr ${DEST}/* \
 && cp dist/nightlyBuild.zip $DEST \
 && cd $DEST \
     && unzip nightlyBuild.zip)
if test $? != 0; then echo "NIGHTLY BUILDS FAILED on $DATE" >> $HISTORY; exit 2; fi
DDDATE=`date`
echo "Success on start=$DATE end=$DDDATE" >> $HISTORY
exit 0

dchandler d1ce484a1f Fixed a broken link. 2003-01-27 05:44:56 +00:00
dchandler 6064903cf9 Documents how to install and use JUnit for automated unit tests.
Besides the fact that I like unit tests, my Unicode conversion work is
going to have to be thorougly tested.

Other small improvements to the text were made.

dchandler 5cfbcdfd30 Added a design document concerning the Tibetan Format Converter,

dchandler 58287c09a5 Documents checking out the Fonts module underneath the Jskad module to
allow for including the fonts inside JARs.

dchandler 42d9c7c072 Typo. 2002-10-28 05:12:43 +00:00
dchandler ba7fd6370a We now have two sets of API docs, one with private members too. 2002-10-28 05:09:15 +00:00
dchandler c79911fec5 We now have two sets of API docs, one with private members too. 2002-10-28 05:00:07 +00:00
dchandler d4f8161d2b At Edward's request, the codebase for Java Web Start releases may now
be specified on the command line via
'ant -Djnlp.codebase="http://foo.bar/baz"'.

This means that dist/ no longer contains .jnlp files; they are created by Ant
instead.
2002-10-25 11:56:38 +00:00
dchandler 38e6504d0d At Edward's request, Vamp is no longer required to build our tools. It is still
required by anyone who wishes to cut a Java Web Start release.

This should make it easier for a new developer to get up to speed.
2002-10-25 11:06:04 +00:00
dchandler 1ef4b5cff8 Added documentation on our build systems -- how to compile, run, cut
releases, etc.
2002-10-20 22:40:18 +00:00
dchandler b66f6b1756 Ran these through the W3C validator and fixed the problems I found. 2002-10-20 22:39:11 +00:00
dchandler 7f58884706 Added links to JDOM, Xerces, and Xalan. 2002-10-06 20:46:33 +00:00
dchandler 0dc02e63ef Now we'll have archived CVS commit messages thanks to a script in
CVSROOT that sends mail to thdltools-cvs@lists.sf.net.

(Cosmetic changes to the website were made.)
2002-10-03 04:34:29 +00:00
dchandler 475fa9fcea Added link back to index.html. 2002-10-03 04:26:17 +00:00
dchandler e760af8c1a Minor changes to the text.
Changed e-mail address for comments on these pages to the developer's
mailing list.

dchandler 8d39771fb8 Added links to Apache Ant.
Reformatted link to our API docs.
2002-09-30 01:37:38 +00:00
dchandler f4fc29fe6c Accurate hit counts for this page did not exist until today, because this commit tells SF.net which project is getting page views. 2002-09-29 20:51:44 +00:00
dchandler e1cd145801 Added link to API docs, which are now generated by an ant task so that they can be easily updated.
Rephrased something to remove doubt.

Now ignoring api docs in CVS.
2002-09-29 20:42:41 +00:00
dchandler a0b4002eba Added a period. (Really, I'm testing my WinCVS configuration.) 2002-09-23 02:25:41 +00:00
dchandler b1dce0d185 This description is more accurate. Also, I added a link to the developers' site in the list of links. 2002-09-23 00:53:58 +00:00
