Thanks. Well, seems it's even more cross platform than I thought. That's good.
The typo, ups.. my bad -.- Will get corrected :) The HTML character encodings were slipping my mind a bit. Hm, you are right. There are one or two, but only a few. Will put it on the schedule. Thanks for pointing it out. Unicode is handled fine, but apostrophes are encoded as HTML, makes life more interesting..
I put up the GTK looks now because it is portable and because GNOME uses it as widget set, but the whole architecture is designed in a pluggable way, and maybe someone will develop a wx front-end some time so it will look more native on other platforms too.
I was just pushing a bit to get the core things done and release a beta to establish a good development basis for interested people. It's supposed to be a community project ^^
Thanks for taking time and testing it on Mac OS X, I'm quite happy about it :D About the tracker, well yes, as you saw it stand in the README, that it is quite platform dependent by nature. An lsof version would probably make it seamlessly portable to Mac, but that's still an idea I had in a little design brainstorming a few days ago. We'll see if someone wants to do it or not. The windows port would also need a similar tool to lsof, and I found one called handle, but as I neither own a Mac nor a Windows machine (no, don't want to), so this task will be given to other community members :)
The tracker and recognizing engine are experimental anyway, so until they don't get more elaborate it is only of limited interest to port it. Think this will improve shortly.
@Kotori: Thanks for interest. Was not interfering in the Windows discussion because of the above mentioned reasons. If someone makes a port, then there will be one, but that's still in the future. Right now it seems that the interface and synchronization can be loaded with a lot of fiddling, but it was not the major target so far. Getting out the beta in a somewhat consistent state was. |
