WSJT-X

History

Bill Somerville c99e564f1e Several improvements related to packaging on Linux. Added a manpages sub-project to generate man pages for wsjtx from AsciiDoc source. Add items required by Debian packaging and Free Desktop Standards. Add better command line processing to wsjtx including version and help options. Add a new command line option 'test-mode' that invokes the Qt test mode where all writable file locations are moved to a common directory. This is to allow application testing from a repeatable start point rather than have the test application sharing files with normal operations. See QStandardPaths::setTestModeEnabled() for details of the test location. git-svn-id: svn+ssh://svn.code.sf.net/p/wsjt/wsjt/branches/wsjtx@4046 ab8295b8-cf94-4d9e-aec4-7959e3be5d79		2014-04-20 02:39:48 +00:00

README

This directory contains original artwork used to generate the graphics
used in various parts of the WSJT-X ecosystem. The CMake build scripts
do not  generate the  final image bitmaps  becuase of teh  extra tools
required to  complete this  step. Instead there  is shell  script here
(make_graphics.sh) that does the generation. If you want to modify the
sourec graphics  or add new  ones then you  need an SVG editor  (I use
inkscape)  and  a   tool  to  do  various  conversion   steps  (I  use
ImageMagick), the sheel script explicitly uses these tools.

The files here are:

installer_logo.svg - A 150x57 pixel  image (the size is important with
    a  whte background  that is  used  at the  top right  of the  NSIS
    Windows installer.

wsjtx_globe_1024x1024.svg -  A 1024x1024 pixel image which  is used in
    various places, mainly for high resolution icons.

wsjtx_globe_128x128.svg - A 128x128 pixel  image which is used for low
    resolution icons.

make_graphics.sh  -  Run  this  script  (on  Linux)  to  generate  the
    intermediate  bitmap image  files used  in the  wsjtx  build. This
    script  generates all  but the  final  Mac iconset  file which  is
    generated by a build on Mac since it requires a Mac developer tool
    (iconutil). This script requires that inkscape and ImageMagick are
    installed.
