AbiWord Weekly News #133, (2003, week 09, released 2003.03.09)
Welcome to this issue 133 of the AbiWord Weekly News.
Follow-ups:
Seth Delackner's file conversion utility has its first release for the brave. GNOME and Bonobo are chugging along nicely And, in theory, an end to belated AWN's has finally arrived ^_^
This week in development
Marc goes GLADE-happy while also pushing hard on the Word Perfect plugin. Dom takes out a good number of bugs and enhancements, a number worth noticing, and, at the same time, has begun noticeable alterations to the setup of the help systems. In a near rarity, a Patch Prize is also included this week.
Silliness of the Week
Ooh, fortune cookie!
Reform requires swift actionOoh, another fortune cookie!

Discussions
Traffic on the developer mailing list has settled at about 200-400 postings per week. This week, interesting topics on the developer list included:
-
Commit: Initial GLADEification , Commit: forgot glade-detection , Commit: see the light and unbreak the tree Commit: more libglade stuff and Commit: InsertTable dialog gladification : Marc begins committing his work towards the use of GLADE for building the dialogues. Marc's initial commits were intended to give Frank a view of some of the troubles Marc was having with the auto* build system. Later, the viable support, the glade peer library (libglade), was added, making it possible to create glade-ified dialogues -- no cute logo was available at press time. Unix dialogues are now done in 100+ fewer lines of code; however, one Michael D. Pritchett maintains his original thought on the concept, summed up in the eloquent phrase, "Grrrrr."
-
Commit: rewritten the WordPerfect importer Commit: make the WordPerfect plugin compile : Marc works on far more than just glade, you know. This commit results in the official dependence on the libwpd for WordPerfect importation. "How good is it" you ask? See the same standard document in Word Perfect and AbiWord CVS.
-
Commit: 4561 : Dom announces that bugs have dropped to 823 from their peak of 930. This particular bug, 4561, described the PageUp key not functioning when near the top of a document.
-
Commit: Selection Preserving class : Dom creates a new class for handling selected text, which may help with numerous issues on how AbiWord is handling selection issues. "A few bugs out of the way, sounds great, Eric." Nice, but there's more to it than that. Martin discusses his ideas for expanding the class into handling whole columns of tables and similar examples; Martin estimates implementing the feature would take two Sevior* Weeks to implement. Unfortunately, fortunately and otherwise, Dom would rather use that time to stabilize the current Abi-HEAD for the coming release of AbiWord II: The Wrath of Dom. Now, everyone get back to the bug squashing and leave the dreams in The Dreaming. Go 2.2!
-
localize abiword??? with my new language : Bill's back and further than ever at translating his language into AbiWord...I think. Either he needs a "How to translate .po A to .po B and make a string file," or someone to upload the new file. <shatner>I'm...just...not sure...which</shatner>....

Re: OS X 10.1.x version MIA : Gareth Jones, a 10.1 user, want to know where to find the 10.1 downloadables mentioned on the website. Hub and Frank, having upgraded to Jaguar, appear to have forgotten the site specifies 10.1, not 10.2. Frank mentions that he only marked the later releases as Jaguar because they failed to compile on 10.0.4. He hints at yet another chance in Redmond that it might be do-able for him to compile another binary in that direction; however, he points out that Apple's X11 beta requires 10.2.3, making it wise enough to upgrade. Gareth is very patient, or, at least, is willing to wait for someone else to make a go at binary for a 10.0.x or 10.1.x system. The site should be changed to say 10.2 (a few minutes with sed will have fixed that). Anyone still on 10-10.1 system is welcome to compile a binary should Frank not find the time, or, for that matter, his buried 10.0.4 system.
-
ut_contextGlyph: display code or document code? : A nice update to Seth Delackner's attempt at creating an independent system for .doc to .rtf conversion. ut_contextGlyph.h is causing a few headaches when generating the Rich Text Format. Though, as Tomas explains, "anything that lives in the text/fmt directory is concerned solely with display," Martin points out that, a long time ago, to prevent replicating much of the import and export code, it was decided to use the existing to code to do many of the calculations that occur outside of the piecetable., which includes glyph construction, e.g. the shaper in the contextGlyph case.
-
commit: abiword-plugins: libxml2-based HTML import : Frank excitedly announces the release of a competent HTML importer, thus, allowing for much bug squashing in the future. I believe his exact words were, "Yay! Yay! At long long last we have competent HTML import!" Now, he may even have time for his interview about e-monk.
-
Commit: some help work; RFP , Commit: HTML export fixes, another gnome documentation script and Commit: Gnome Help Integration (finally) : Dom would like to separately package the help files, specializing the needs for independent desktop needs, e.g. no hanging in Yelp for GNOME, creation of .hlp for Windows, et. c. This is the initial work committed by Dom, combined with a request for others to look into the matter and make some prudent decisions.
-
Testing new localization : Pierre has been trying to get Lojban to work on his system, but is having some difficulty in doing so. Dom believes it is the fault of the libc of the operating system he is using, for when a system lacks a locale, there's plum-doodle all the hackers in Abi-Land can do about it.
-
abiconvert project (alpha release for test only) : Tada! Seth is proud to announce the first version of the extracted AbiWord file conversion utility, abiconvert. For a standard source-only version, visit Seth's source copy. Mac Jag users can get an already compiled already executable. Legal discussions and a standard queue of "why and why not"s is included.
-
Xft dependency on OS X? : Going through dependency hell, OS X users? As mentioned two weeks ago, Frank has put together a solution package just for you. He explains, "AbiWord itself isn't the most stable of applications at the moment, but...with this installed it would be relatively easy to build CVS AbiWord yourself and so keep up to date with development."
Traffic on the user mailing list is sporadic at best. Often, a good topic comes up, but users tend to only respond to the original poster rather than the list (as well), which limits what I would add, as the only lone threads I post are announcements of importance or points of great interest. This week, interesting topics on the user list included:
-
Bidi on AW 1.1.3 : Uri Elias lists a series of major issues in 1.1.3 in regards to the bidirection capabilities (or lack thereof) of AbiWord. Raphael Finkel explains why these issues occur and how to fix them; though, I would think telling a user to alter their keymap for one application is, to say the least, off-putting.
-
printing problems : Another story of daring, of he who'd dare use CVS HEAD as their primary word processor. Alan G. Isaac learns of a poignant printing problem precariously placed in CVS HEAD, particularly for Windows users. And now, a reminder to Jeremy to make sure the CVS STABLE option is implemented in the automated downloader: Jeremy, make sure the CVS STABLE option is implemented in the automated downloader.
-
Debian Woody packages of 1.0.4? : Martin Keienburg would love a nice .deb package for Woody. I don't think we have one, so, if a generous Debian user could spare the time to make one and send to Dom or Hub, there's a good chance one might exist for download shortly there after. For more on a related subject, check out Re: problem installing on Mandrake 9.0.
-
dumb AbiWord user on a mac : Don Robertson didn't know that the development term of "Unix" did, indeed, apply to OS X. Don's made the horrible, horrible mistake of selecting, "ignore Unix font paths" in his preferences. These errors can only be fixed by editing your AbiWord profile directly; here, in particular, the line a few up from the second scheme called "UnixFontPath=". Speaking from the GNU/Linux perspective, the default appears to be "fonts".
Development
CVS StatsTrack who put in how much and why. And, while you're at it, consider whether you'd like to keep your own cvs build as well. Tables...ooh....

Weekly Prize Patch
Dom, with the help of all those of you who donated to help keep AbiWord great, re-established the Weekly Prize Patch. Established at $45 pre-charges (read: the financial companies cut), the prize is awarded by the decision of Martin and Dom, both of whom must agree on the winner. Though neither Dom nor Martin may vote for themselves, they posses to "trumps" that allow them to vote for the other, therefore nullifying that other's vote. Most importantly, winning is entirely dependent on how lagered-up Martin and Dom are at the time in question.
Abi Patch prize..
TRUMP!
A very special TRUMP this week sees the patch prize go to Dom and Pat Lam
for some incredible long-term efforts to fix our internal units usage.
We now use a single unified set of units to calculate text positions at
all resolutions, all zooms and for printing. This makes AbiWord 100%
WYSIWYG for the first time.
In addition the code base allows us to investigate implementing
extremely rapid zooming even of large documents.
Congratulations Guys!
Cheers
Martin
POWs
The concept of a "Project Of the Week" is to single out tasks of major interest that outside developers might be interested in providing assistance to. Until a "best way" of listing POWs comes to mind, they shall be listed in a short description. Any user interested is welcome to assist in tackling these POWs. If you know someone who's interested, you can link directly to a POW, in order, they're pow5 (at the top) through pow1 (at the bottom). Reminder to developers, I can't post them if you don't submit them. Additionally, feel free to announce if one of these is finished (in case you don't mention it on the list or in the cvs). Oh, and in case you didn't notice, they're a great way to get money from Dom, really!
Name: 4465

Comments: No experience required. A good way to be introduced to AbiWord contribution efforts.
System: Any and every OS.
AbiVersion: 1.0.4 only (for now at least)
Challenge level: *.... 1 star out of 5
Current Heros: "Some of the most active were Mikey Cooper, Tom Purl and Eric Blom."
Name: Style and/or Diction Plugins (bug 3281) (do either/or or both!)
Description: build a plugin to allow AbiWord to check style and diction
Advertisement: me got no grammar fixer, help mes can't you?
Recommended Outline: Create a plugin for AbiWord that allows the checking of style and diction. The source code for the gnu style and diction tools is available here: http://www.gnu.org/software/diction/diction.html
As a prototype you might be able to hack something using the AbiCmd plugin to wrap the style and diction tools. The AikSaurus (Thesaurus) plugin should also be a helpful guide.
When you get the basics working you could try to get AbiWord to display green squiggle underlines to mark errors, or otherwise work on a good user interface.
Comments: A great way to start playing with the AbiSource
System: Any OS will be fine.
Challenge level: ***.. 3 stars out of 5
Current Hero: The mastery of Kung Fu has yet to appear.
Name: Fix Windows printing boogs (bug 3239)
Description: Tackle some or more of the various bugs that cause issues in attempting to print under Windows
Advertisement: ????????????????????????????? (no, that's really the ad!)
Recommended Outline: You must become magical to know how to fix this.
Comments: "The problem is that printing on Windows is broken with several brand of printer drivers (see dependent bugs). It appears that with standard PostScript driver it does not happen. It appears also that version 0.9.6 had less problems than 1.0.1 so we might find out where the regression is bu diffing.
"Please, be sure to read all the bug reports. Even partial fix are accepted.
"Fixes must be done against STABLE tree and possibly ported to HEAD (the later can be done as a second step)."

What you see here are either invalid bug reports or duplicates. So, basically, I'm showing everyone else how doofy you are sometimes. On average*, confirming duplication or non-validity takes four minutes and thirty-five seconds. That's the equivalent of 8LLOC of time for Dom. Any other questions why development isn't as fast as you want?

Release HackDown
This is an AbiWord Weekly News original concept: The Release Hackdown. In the table below, you can watch what bugs are being fixed in preparation for the very next release. Check the key at the bottom to understand formatting.
No pressure, guys, I'm sure only 2000 or so people will be watching to see what you do weekly. That breaks down to about 285 people daily and 12 people hourly, so, it's like being peeked at once every five minutes, literally. "Isn't that veird!?"

This documents the progress of various bugs and features Hub hopes to have ironed out by 1.0.5. May the source be with him, always.
