Hi, so there will be 2.9.7 soon so plans for 2.9.8 are actual. Features which should be in 2.9.8 - (main) gettext support - (main) support for help files for different languages - cleaner source - documentation (and perhaps rewriting) of macro system - removing bugs ;) This document is RFC so please comment marx |

Adding gettext support should be relatively easy and can be done semi automaticly.

Hi! Two problems: I want to get rid of config.h and use autoconf.h only. Adding -Dpath into autoconf.h: I wanted to do that but I don't know how. I want to make it customizable by configure switch --sysconfdir but autoconf doesn't replace @sysconfdir@ in the autoconf.h. Do you know any solution? Cheers, Vita |

Leaving user-editable headers implies interactive setup in some sort, while with autoconf's keyword it's only a matter of ./configure --something, which can be done automated (read "non-interactively") by, i.e., bsd ports or something like that. > > Adding -Dpath into autoconf.h: I wanted to do that but I don't know how.

Solution 1: Add this line to configure.in: AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED(MYDIR, "$sysconfdir") and this line to autoconf.h.in: #undef MYDIR ----------------------------------------- Solution 2: Add this to configure.in (not really needed, just to show the idea): FOODIR='${datadir}'/joe AC_SUBST(FOODIR) and this to Makefile.am: AM_CFLAGS = -DMYDIR=\"$(sysconfdir)\" -DFOODIR=\"$(FOODIR)\" Regards, Mikhael. |
