Hi, There was a discussion a little while ago about setting up nightly regression testing for the Mac OS X port. Three people volunteered, but for whatever reason, no testing is set up at the moment. At least one of the people had trouble with the nightly script -- it ran ok when invoked by hand, but failed when invoked via cron (or whatever Apple's equivalent is). So if someone has a suitable machine they'd like to volunteer for this task and are willing to spend a bit of effort getting the tests working, that would be great. You'll need a machine that is suitable for running periodic tasks (which probably rules out laptops). There are comprehensive instructions in bin/README. If someone could get this working, it would be a great help for the stability of the Mac port. Thanks. Nick |

FWIW, I'm still working on this, but no progress yet. ___________________________________________________ Michael Sweet, Senior Printing System Engineer |
