Non-interactive mode

2006-12-13 Thread Alan Woodland
Hi,

I just downloaded and compiled Dia 0.94 on my Mac (10.4), under fink.  
Following the instructions in the posting [1]. With Dia 0.94 on  
Debian when I run dia --version or --help it does what I expected,  
i.e. showing the version or the help and exiting. When I try this on  
my Mac (or more importantly use --export= and --export-to-format=) it  
doesn't work, instead it tries to treat all the arguments passed to  
it as files to open.

Am I being really stupid here? Is this a known issue? The  
documentation installed in /usr/local/man/man1/dia.1 indicates this  
should work as I expected.

Thanks,
Alan.

This is not a known issue, as far as I remember.  What is the complete
command line you give it?

I would be curious in general to see the results of compiling 0.95.1 or
current CVS on Mac.

Looking at the code I think this *is* expected, at least if you don't have
a new enough GLib version (>= 2.6) and also POPT (see HAVE_POPT in
app_procs.c) is missing.
BTW: I only looked at the current source verion, not the obsolete 0.94. But
I'm sure the code has only improved since that.

Prerelease 1 of 0.96

2006-12-13 Thread Lars Clausen
I'm uploading 0.96-pre1 as I write.  It may be slightly rushed out the
door, but I'm not sure of my ability to hack over the next three weeks,
and I didn't want more delays.  If nothing serious turns up within the
next three weeks, 0.96 will be out about a week into the new year --
unless I get good hacking access in the US, in which case it may be
sooner.  Until then, go grab your fresh copy at

Merry Christmas,
