Hi,
I am sending this to the developer's list because in building a patch,
that when successful will be sent here, I encountered some problems that
raised some questions for me.
I was successful in using "svn" to copy gnucash-docs to my computer.
Following your advice, I focused on these two directories: GUIDE/C and
HELP/C.
1. In guide/C I found only this problem:
Could not display
"/home/tbullock/GC-docs/guide/C/gnc_Sample_QIF.qif".
There is no application installed for Quicken Document Files.
This really is not a problem with the Sample file, but a lack
of appropriate software to access its content.
Can you point me to the software needed to use the file? I am
concerned that without access to its content, I will likely miss or
misunderstand something in the present documentation.
2. In help/C I found 3 XML parsing errors, though the specifics of the
errors are unique to each file in which they appear.
Example 1 for help/C:
XML Parsing Error: undefined entity
Location:
file:///home/tbullock/GC-docs/help/C/Help_ch_Account-Actions.xml
Line Number 219, Column 2: &chartacctseg;
--------^
Example 2 for help/C:
XML Parsing Error: undefined entity
Location:
file:///home/tbullock/GC-docs/help/C/Help_ch_Customize.xml
Line Number 1416, Column 2: &txf-categories;
--------^
Example 3 for help/C:
XML Parsing Error: junk after document element
Location:
file:///home/tbullock/GC-docs/help/C/Help_ch_GettingStarted.xml
Line Number 139, Column 1:<chapter id="getting-started">
^
The other files seem free of such errors.
Not knowing XML, how do I get these corrected/removed?
Should they be removed before proceeding with my patch?
When I used SVN to place these files on my computer on Friday, July 9, I
got no error messages. The only message I got was that I had checked
out "revision 19355". Is that the version I should have checked out?
Your guidance much appreciated. If these are to be fixed and I do have
the correct revision, then I could incorporate the fixes for those
errors if someone tells me how to do it.
Tom
