I wonder, out loud, how you're going to be able to engage in any kind of serious development if a simple task (and believe me, it *is* relatively simple) like building from the latest GIT source on a well-supported platform like Fedora is a serious stumbling block.
The fact is, that most people on here are pretty busy folks, and if we're going to help debug stuff for people, having the flow-graphs in a form that is less time-consuming, both for the developer, and the folks who are donating their time to help you debug, just makes a lot of sense. It's vastly easier to spot obvious errors quickly in a GRC flow-graph than to delve into someones Python code. GRC is a *great* prototyping tool, and it's *totally* worth the effort to get it going. Some initial pain perhaps (although, really, doing a build/install from GIT for all recent Fedora instantiations is very straightforward--use the BuildGuide that's on the gnuradio website). -- Principal Investigator Shirleys Bay Radio Astronomy Consortium http://www.sbrac.org _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
