Bob Jacobson,

I'm puffing pretty hard trying to catch on to what's up with JMRI. I have
downloaded Decoder Pro and now JMRI.1.0.5.exe The extracted JMRI.1.0.5.exe
put files in my JMRI folder (running WinME). But the JMRI.1.0.5_Readme
talks about changing some files in some folders.

And I'm lost. Can you point me to someplace that can give me an overview
of this project?

Meanwhile, back to the SourceForge web site.

Cheers

DL went well, and I moved the files to the JMRI folder as directed.
The splash screen and decoder selection worked OK, but when I tried to
open a full (complex) decoder window the JAVA pane opened and I got the
following error messages:

Version 1.0 was working OK on this computer. I'm going to try the
download process again and see if it didn't just get corrupted in
transit, but that's not likely...

Oops. My mistake.

The Mac "classic" version of Java uses an older set of libraries. The code to put "little" editable numbers on the speed table sliders uses a routine that's not present in this older version, hence the error. I didn't catch this in testing, sorry.

I'll protect against the error, retest on an older Mac and get an update out shortly.

How you update depends on which type of computer you've got. If it's some form of Windows, just run the .exe file.

If you're using Linux, Macintosh or OS/2, the .exe file isn't going to do you any good. Instead, you take the .zip file, unpack it to create a folder, and move the files into place by hand. Hopefully I'll be able to create a Macintosh installer to automate that process Real Soon Now, but I don't know how to do that for Linux or OS/2.

Note that the 1.0.5 update et al is really intended for testing; as you've seen in the Yahoo group, those updates occasionally backfire for some people.

And I'm lost. Can you point me to someplace that can give me an overview
of this project?

The best overview we've got is:



or for the DecoderPro part:



For installing the original program, but not the update, please see:



It would be great if somebody wanted to write some better documentation. A manual, even a very basic one, would be _really_ great.

Hmmm... Mebbe I'm being stupid... but I'll take a shot at it.

Given the frequency of change of the program, I suspect an HTML format would be best (and simplest to allow inclusion of screen shots), with one "page" per tab. I'll play with it and see what I can come up with.

I think I've got this fixed in the 1.0.6 version. You can try downloading that from:



This is a complete new folder, rather than parts you need to move to the existing folder. That makes it a little larger, but is so much simpler for people that it seems the right way to distribute this.

I'll keep this simple...

I'll have to take a look at the code for the graphing functions. The PR1 software has a feature where you can input a few elements of the speed table and it will "connect the dots". It would be nice to be able to do that to non-zero random midpoints, not just the endpoints. It would save a lot of mousework. Ah, well... it's almost 1:30 AM here... time enough for that tomorrow!

I think the hard part is figuring out a nice interface for this. I''m not familar with the PR1 software, perhaps they've solved that?

A while back, somebody (I think it might have been Dave Falkenberg, but am not sure) suggested adding a check box at the bottom of each slider in the speed table. If an unchecked slider was moved, it would do the same thing they do now. But if you moved a checked slider, it would draw a straight line to the nearest checked slider on either side.

In other words, you could checkmark a couple of sliders which would server as the "midpoints", and then slide them around with the program filling in straight-line interpolations in between.
