It turns out the RC detection snippet is no longer necessary
after the recent CMake version bump.
The "name" argument in the UI file is redundant, implied by "action".
It is very difficult to set up Python or Ruby on Windows XP.
Simple HTML works better, everywhere, it covers all our needs,
and it isn't any harder to write.
This documentation is now installed.
This saves 20 MiB and 4 MiB of libraries in MSYS2 and bundle
builds respectively, in total, without any adverse effects.
The MSYS2 build remains bloated, due to the Adwaita icon theme.
Bump minimum CMake version to avoid a bug.
- Add a missing runtime library for gettext-tools.
- Remove the no longer necessary customized FindGettext.cmake,
since the downloaded gettext binaries are new enough.
- Make the installer at least ask to uninstall previous versions.
- Adjust the PATH of tests so that they'll run on Windows directly.
- Fix quoting so that the project will build inside paths with spaces.
- Resolve a GSettings deprecation warning.
- Update the README's build instructions as appropriate.
- Require CMake 3.9 because of the README's suggestion to fix
FindPkgConfig.cmake manually using separate_arguments(UNIX_COMMAND).
Tested build configurations:
- native Arch Linux,
- native Windows XP with the newest NSIS,
- Arch Linux Mingw-w64 i686 Win32Depends.cmake NSIS cross-build + XP,
- Arch Linux Mingw-w64 x86_64 MSYS2 NSIS cross-build + Windows 10.
Detected issues:
- The file save dialog will not add the extension automatically,
seen with MSYS2.
The one depicting symbol selection has been removed since it's no longer
deemed useful: the status bar hint on startup should be enough.
There is no need for a separate picture in the project root anymore.
While we've lost precise control over the output, there's a lot less
noise in the files and we've gained a cheap way of producing user
documentation in the HTML format.
Apparently I was eyeing DocBook all those years ago as well. I /think/
it proved to be a little bit too hard to write that way, or to get
visually satisfying results. Nonetheless, the raw format is capable of
specifying figures with multiple pictures, so we might want to revisit
the idea some other day.
The documents have been slightly updated to reflect the "recent" changes
in program function and hosting. Some issues have also been corrected
in the English translation.
