a86b73029c Found another inconsistency between Unicode and the TM/TMW docs. I've sent e-mail to Tony Duff asking who's right, but I'm putting this in the errata under the assumption that even if Unicode is wrong, Unicode's wrong view will somehow rule the day. 2003-11-24 05:42:09 +00:00

110c3dcbbc An attempt at bringing these pages up to date w.r.t. THDL HTML guidelines.
I ran these through validator.w3.org; some validated; some didn't.  <code> is legal, though, I swear.

eb7013dc39 TMW_RTF_TO_THDL_WYLIE now converts TM->TMW. 2003-06-08 22:43:43 +00:00

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.

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.

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.

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
