oops, that was to test whether errors were reported correctly. :oops:

That should be fixed now.

I was reviewing Knotter manual right now and it's very bad. It will be slightly better on the next commit.

Another question:
Configuration is saved to a file - from which the name and the directory (I can find - but I prefer to ask ...)

I'm using the Qt QSettings feature.

On Unix-like (not Mac) the location should be ~/.config/knotter/knotter.conf

For details see http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qsetti ... are-stored
(replace "MySoft" and "Star Runner" with "knotter" in the examples)

The format should be mostly human-readable, with some binary data for GUI setup.

You can remove old configuration from Preferences... > General (this doesn't actually remove the file but should clear the contents)

Loading configuration for different version should be safe, unknown values are ignored and everything can be changed from the UI.

Thank you for your information - I have to think about (and how it can be used in windows...)

I've just released Knotter 0.7.0, now on sourceforge I'm hosting rpm and deb binary packages for IA32 and x86_64.
I'm not a packaging expert so let me know if there something wrong with them.
The issue with the manual on Windows has not been solved yet (since I have no way to debug it) but now it should report useful info upon failure.

knotter_0.7.0-2_amd64.deb works well in Kubuntu.
Thanks!

Very nice.
I tried the rpm for Fedora and it wouldn't install.
So i just downloaded the src and ran
./configure.sh and then make.
Compiled real fast and real well. :)
Some nice new options and the manual looks great too.

I'm happy you guys like my program.

Rod, does the installer complain about anything specific?
I may have forgotten to include some dependency, if I get the time I'll test the packages in a fresh installation of Fedora.

No it just tries to install with my archiver program. :)
As if it doesn't realize it's an installer.

Works fine for me, maybe you have to configure your browser to open it with the software installer.
Or just download it to your computer and open it from the file manager.
( the installer executable is /usr/bin/gpk-install-local-file )

Thanks for reporting that. It should be fixed now.

Development is going very slow now as I don't have as much time as few months ago. :cry
