Message-ID: Hi, I got information about this mailing list from the KDE Documentation web page. I hope this is the right list to post the message :) I am currently a student, and my coding skills are not upto the mark. Nevertheless, I would really want to contribute to KDE. I have gone through the guides mentioned on the web site, and the documentation primer. I would hence request you to suggest me a suitable starting point, and also whether to start off with KDE 3 or KDE 4. Also, if there are any other ways to get involved in the KDE documentation project, I would be glad if you could inform me of the same.

From marcel at cs.vu.nl Tue Mar 6 20:26:51 2007 From: marcel at cs.vu.nl (Marcel van de Vel) Date: Tue, 06 Mar 2007 20:26:51 +0100 Subject: [kde-doc-english] about the "tar" command Message-ID: <45EDC07B.80401@cs.vu.nl> LS, Today, I had an accident with the "tar" command (version 1.14, 30 November 2006) that made me loose the work of hours. From my earlier experiences with "tar", I believed that it should not overwrite new files with older ones. It does, and, even more amazingly, a deliberate design choice dictates a complicated option "--keep-newer-files" to prevent this (as I discovered only after the damage occured). Apparently, it is believed that the situation does not normally occur. It does. At my job, I have a pc, and also a laptop to work at home. I regularly use tar files to transfer data from the pc to the laptop and vice versa. There are two ways for this: one is to pack only the files that changed (with a risk of forgetting one); the other is to get all files around, both changed and unchanged. With due care, this never went wrong when I had an older "tar", but the current version considerably increases the risk of a clash. The principle to be followed by "tar" should clearly be this: --> When a newer file is going to be replaced by an extracted older one, it is most probably not intentional. Only an explicit option may allow "tar" to do it; not the other way round. Isn't this common sense? Let me take the occasion to report another type of accident with "tar", that could easily be prevented. When composing a list of argument files for "tar", I sometimes forget to name an archive file (more often I noticed this just in time before pressing "return"). As a result, the first named argument file is used and overwritten. Such disasters could be avoided if "tar" would insist on a standard postfix (like ".tgz") when creating an archive, with an explicit option to make "tar" more tolerant on (absence of) postfixes.

New docs I found so far ksig (75 messages), kompare (280 messages) Ok to backport? 2. Docs with bug fixes, changed and sometimes additional content and also ebn fixes like eg kbackgammon, kshisen, kpdf, kpercentage, ktouch, kturtle, juk, kaudiocreator, kmix, kscd. I suppose there will be some more docs in the other kde modules. There should be no objections to backport this stuff. 3. Docs only with ebn, typo and markup fixes, in addons, admin, edu, games, graphics, multimedia all together 32 doc with about 100 fuzzies. There are more docs with these changes in the other modules. I will not backport these docs, except you give me your explicit Ok to do so. For all backports I can provide a plain text file with message number, msgid-previous and msgid-new for the fuzzy messages like the attached example for kmix.

I'm not clear on the ins and outs, particularly concerning string freezes, of fixing documentation problems in the KDE 3.x series. I saw some changes that could be made in the KPatience manual. I started editing to a copy of the Docbook file. I was unsure about a few things, which I'll bring up in a separate e-mail. I'll illustrate what I'm lost about using KPatience as an example. As I understand it: * Everything under the /trunk directory is in active development for KDE4. * Some, not all, applications are also under /branches/$app (or /branches/work/$app for stuff not in core distribution). /branches is for working on the KDE 3.x versions of the applications, so new features of those apps can be added to arrive for users in KDE 3.5x/3.6/7. I saw some tweaks, grammar and the like, that could be made to the present kpat manual while browsing the installed version on my KDE 3.5.5 desktop. Ideally, folks should work on trunk docs. But KDE4 is still a way off. Is there any value in (also?) working on the documentation to benefit users of future KDE 3.x series releases? KPatience is in active development with changes being made to how it works (new keybindings for example) in /trunk. As far as I know it isn't being worked on to make a new version for future KDE 3.x releases as well. Unless I have a working KDE4 development installation to run the current KPatience development version, I won't be easily able to write updated documentation through checking against its changes/new features. However, say I propose clarity/grammar fixes for the current KDE 3.x manual. The manual for the KDE4 version would benefit from these same changes. In other words, working from an updated index.docbook that had already had any earlier wording errors fixed, so only changes like new keybindings or new features normally needed to be added. In the case of kpat, I decided to work on the index.docbook file in /trunk. I did this because a) changes reflecting new features hadn't been added to it yet anyway, and b) I'd make sure to include any wording fixes added since the last KDE release. Bug #103079 is an example of such a fix (though from a while back and already in the KDE 3.x manual). I changed the releaseinfo number to match the application version in the current stable KDE 3.x release. If somebody patching a doc made a diff for each release - branch and trunk, then they'd need a different releaseinfo number in each I suppose. Perhaps it's too late. Will changes to manuals be able to reach users for future KDE 3.x releases, including those apps not simultaneously worked on under a 3.5x branch? Thanks, Richard.

We've been using trunk/ as a kind of "holding ground" for any changes we make, since these changes can of course be useful for later KDE 4 docs. We also have semi-regular string unfreezes on the 3.5 branch, during which we backport any changes of content (ie, not just spelling/grammar/markup changes) from trunk/. We currently have a string unfreeze targetting 3.5.7, so any new content committed to trunk can be backported to the branch, and will appear in 3.5.7. (Incidentally, the 3.5 series is the last of the KDE 3 releases - there might be a 3.5.8, but there won't be a 3.6) The tentative release schedule for KDE 4.0 [1] suggests we will soon need to start working on docs for KDE 4, so this will change at some point.

It is a fact .. until it changes due to unforseen circumstances. Since the application feature freeze is on 1 June, it probably would be smart to delay making major handbook changes for KDE4.0 until after that date.

A diff against KPatience index.docbook from trunk is attached for review. It's mainly wording changes that I think make it sound clearer. Please let me know if you think they don't! I can remove changes on request and keep any there's a consensus we should keep. Some things I was unsure about, so those questions are further down. == List of Changes == a) Misc. wording/grammar/punctuation changes. b) Removed description of 'Kings'. This patience game was removed because of bugs (see bug #84819, comment #3). - Stephan Kulow said in IRC there is even a bug about Kings still being mentioned. I was unable to find it; can anybody else? ... or maybe he just meant it *was* a bug, albeit unfiled. c) Swapped Golf and Spider around, so Golf appears first. Matches menu in game more closely now. d) Credits on the 1st page were getting a little long. So I moved some to just the Contributors section. Hope this is okay? == Things I am unsure of == 1) This app also has a manpage, in the repository. Is there a policy user apps should have a manpage? Are these written by hand typically (or with something like Manedit), or somehow generated automatically from Docbook files through the autoconf/cmake scripts? Or by XSLT? I'm wondering if I should make a separate diff for the app's manpage, when amending a docbook manual. 2) Marked up a reference to a feature, like so: - especially if you use the undo feature + especially if you use the Undo feature In this case, the 'Undo' option is accessible through *both* the toolbar button - and - the edit menu. I wasn't sure which I should choose. When referring to a something like this, is that the correct markup? Previously there were no markup tags around that option. 3) Removed a section that read "Use of the menu is too easy to be described now.". I felt if it isn't described, there isn't much point in telling the user it wasn't going to be. :) Also, I later added a set of chapter tags, because that removal made it go from listing terminology to rules of Klondike, on the same page. _Is_ this appropriate, or should the menu options really be described? If so, Phil R., you mentioned on a kbackgammon bug that you had a script that might make writing menu refs easier. Perhaps I could save some time using that, if I need to document the menu? 4) Since the doc (if approved+committed) is going into /trunk, should I change down the revisionnumber in the file to match the application version in KDE 3.5.5 ? 5) Adding newish contributor entities cause the XML check to choke. This is because they weren't present in KDE3. Say I add myself to the contribs section. Should I add the entity for myself, or just put my name and email address in manually to later be switched with the entity? Thank you in advance for feedback, Richard. P.S http://www.kde.org/mailinglists/ (redirect from mail.kde.org) lists kde-docbook. Does this need changing to kde-doc-english, or are both lists still valid? The kde-docbook list is still open for posts. -------------- next part -------------- An embedded and charset-unspecified text was scrubbed...

Using entities helps make sure capitalization is consistent across documentation. The name of the application is KHelpCenter, so the text is purely the name of the application - not necessarily the filename of the program. To start the application from the commandline, the command is all lower-case: ~$ khelpcenter. I'm not sure how this could be best improved. Perhaps adding 'which you can start by going to X menuoption, pressing F1, or...'? The KHelpCenter's own manual, in my en_GB setting, refers to it as: The KHelpCenter - KDE Help Centre. A style policy rule would cover this.

I updated the documentation in trunk 3 months ago, so trunk is more uptodate than stable and has already some of your corrections. Could you please write a patch for the documentation in trunk?

A discussion about harder to find documentation bugs came up recently in the #kde-docs IRC channel. Phil Rodrigues said if I could compile a list of the apps that have a "docs" component, that could be useful to know. Here are the results! Product: kdevelop has components for 'doctreeview' and 'documentation viewer', but this does not seem to be the same thing. Product: kio has component 'help'. Again, this doesn't usually seem to refer to ordinary user help. Some bugs are filed under this. ... Product: 'kjsembed' has component 'Docs and examples'. No bugs have been filed under this. Product: 'krita' has component 'Documentation'. No bugs have been filed under this. Product: 'kst' has component for 'documentation' (and 'i18n'). Only one bug [#93829], which is resolved, has been filed under this. == Possible 'docs' bugs filed elsewhere in KDE Bugzilla == About 65 open bugs are documentation bugs not filed under the 'docs' product. Generally in components like 'General', against the individual apps. Including closed bugs brings the amount to about 350 (some of these may be i18n-only issues). Phil confirmed that only the 'docs' Product auto-mails to the kde-doc-English list. == KDE Docs team website == The Documentation Writing team page [http://l10n.kde.org/docs/current.php] has an open tasks section with the following Bugzilla queries set up: * Applications that don't have any documentation, or missing information in existing documents * Applications manuals that need corrections or updates to existing text * Screenshots that need fixing These search for a) Open bugs in Product: 'docs', that have Component: 'Missing' set. b) As above but with Component: 'Corrections'. b) As above but with Component: 'Screenshots'. Documentation-related bugs that are not filed under 'Product: docs' do not display to potential contributors using those queries (or during a similar search using the Bugzilla web interface). If requested, I can certainly re-file those bugs to Product: docs as appropriate. However, that would generate anything from 60ish-300+ bug e-mails to kde-doc-English in one swoop. That wouldn't make me very popular. :o) Regards, Richard.

Here it is. Thanks for your quick respond :) The "updated graphics" package can still be used, since the trunk version does use the same (outdated) graphics.
