Sigil 0.1.1

Valloric · 08-05-2009, 09:18 PM

Sigil v0.1.1 has been released. The ChangeLog for this release follows:

Quote:

Sigil v0.1.1 2009.08.06.
- applied provided patch for NetBSD support
- fixed issue with loading images in HTML and EPUB docs that have regexp special characters
in filenames. (issue #39)
- if headings have the 'title' attribute set, it is now used as the TOC text entry. (issue #26)
- tags are now removed from headings before they are converted to TOC entries (issue #47)
- Sigil now remembers the last folder from which you loaded an image (issue #34)
- choosing 'cancel' in TOC editor now no longer forces the views to update
- fixed bug with new headings getting existing IDs. (issue #36)
- printing support! new file menu actions: "print" and "print preview"
- fixed an issue when sometimes switching between views didn't enable/disable appropriate actions
- fixed an issue with mixed-up CSS classes on Mac and Linux (issue #16)
- added line numbering for Code View (issue #9)
- added current line highlighting for Code View
- fixed crashed bug with some calibre generated epubs (issue #16)

The Mac build has been very kindly provided by MobileRead member pilotbob. The Mac machine I used is not available until next Sunday* so I had to recruit someone to do the mac build, and pilotbob came to the rescue.

I am also told that there are some problems with building the mac version from source... Unfortunately I can't work on this until I get a mac near me. DMG users are of course not affect by this.

Linux users should notice there is no binary build for their platform. The previous version had one, and that didn't work out too well. For now, just build it from source:

Code:

$ cmake -G "Unix Makefiles"
$ make

That's it. Look in the "bin" folder for the compiled binary.

*I don't actually own a Mac. A friend of mine owns one, but he's gone temporarily out of town. Great timing, isn't it?

woo hoo !! already up to 0.1.1 !! i'm happy about code line numbers. very, very happy.

by the way, you should add a link to your signature to go directly to the google code page as well.

thanks valloric !!!

I turn off display of signatures on any forum that allows this, so I don't really perceive them. This includes my own

But thanks, I'll fix it now.

Thankyou for this new release. Compiling now

oh the irony.

by the way, the "about" screen still says v.0.1.0

completely unimportant, i know, but i just wanted to admire the landmark.

(should i stop making work for you with "by the way" in every post ?

)

Great. I knew there was something I forgot.

Sorry, forgot to tell you

Noticed it on my AMD64 build..

marcostt · 08-06-2009, 04:54 AM

Thank you for the quick update

But, there is some problem with the mac version... I did dowloaded the v0.1.1 from here http://sigil.googlecode.com/files/Sigil_mac_0.1.1.dmg I did installed, and after run it in "About" is named 0.1.0, and still can not open Calibre`s epub.

Jellby · 08-06-2009, 07:35 AM

Grrr... After compiling Qt 4.5.2, I get this:

WARNING: This project requires version 2.6 of CMake. You are running version 2.4.8.

So I once again ask for pre-compiled static versions, if possible

I'm using a Mandriva 2008 system, but it's sort of in production state, so upgrading now is not the best option.

The About screen displaying the older version number is a known problem. I forgot to increment a variable specifying what version is Sigil.

Please create an issue and attach the epub in question.

You know, linux development is hard. Really hard. Not so much because of the software, but because of the users

. When I provide a binary so that people don't have to compile it themselves, I get yelled at for doing this because "on linux you should provide source packages and people should always install from that, if there are no debs or rpms" (direct quote from email).

When I provided only source packages, it's still not good... So tell me, what do I need to do to make linux people happy? And to somehow stop them from sending me hatemail...

Now Jellby, I know you're not one of those difficult people, so please tell me what to do here.

Debs and rpms should be provided for Sigil 0.1.2, or 0.1.3 at the latest.

Easy: provide both

That would be great too. Best would be to provide source .tar.gz (or .bz2), dynamically linked binary packages (.deb, .rpm and whatnot), and statically linked binary packages. I know best is not always possible though, and you probably don't want to do everything in early development stages.

In my opinion, for development versions it would be enough to provide source code and static binary packages, that's not perfect, but would probably get enough users satisfied enough

Excellent! That'll be used in my netbook, where I don't have all the compilers and development libraries

In the other computer I downloaded cmake 2.6 and could compile Sigil, and it worked! Now I have to figure out how to make a static build that will work in my old laptop, with Mandriva 2005, Qt3.3 and GLIBC_2.3.4
