Title: Tools+ Reference
Post by: Alpha on August 10, 2011, 11:54:50 pm

I have written a page on user defined tools (http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=Tools%2B_reference).  Could someone please check through it for accuracy (especially the commands at the bottom, as I do not have access to multiple operating systems to test them on - they should work, in theory :?).

Thanks.

Very nice! this should go directly into the documentation, maybe mariocup can do this... ;-)

Thank you.
Is there anything I need to do with the page?
I finished adding a few extra example commands, however, someone should test the non-Windows ones, as I wrote them from documentation only (no way for me to test them).

If you know LaTeX  you can try to integrate this into the C::B documentation (see here: http://svn.berlios.de/wsvn/codeblocks/docs/userguide). Just do a checkout on that path and provide a patch. This is not as easy as a WiKi though...

Hi Martin,

currently I have very little spare time. If Alpha could provide a patch it would be perfect and if I find some time I will integrate it.

Unfortunately I have not used LaTeX before, but I have been looking for an excuse to learn it.  I will see what I can do, but it probably will have better results if you are able.

Here (http://ngcoding.tech.officelive.com/Documents/ToolsPlus.patch) is the patch I created.  Also, here (http://ngcoding.tech.officelive.com/Documents/ToolsPlus.7z) is an archive of the added files.  It will more than likely need reformatting of parts (as this is my first experience with LaTeX), but it should save you some time, as all the content is there.

(By the way, is it just me, or is this Tools Plus plugin almost exactly the same thing as the PowerShell plugin?)

Thanks a lot! I'll see if wither me orr mariocup will find the time to integrate. It won't get lost.

And yes: Tools+ is the successor of the PowerShell plugin. The latter is no longer available therefore.

I recently came across this, and am wondering: is this in cue somewhere?  Should I put it on patch tracker?

I was hoping that Mario took the chance, but it sems he didn't. I've committed it now.
I have committed it now (slightly modified).

Hi Morten,

thanks for your help. If you encounter any problems in generating the documentation, please let me know.

Regards,

Mario

The modification was for the best - I have little idea how disastrous my first attempt at LaTeX could have been if left unchecked ;).
