New release from thenameless:


Hello,
so I thought why only Windows GUIs... and then I'have ported the progam ^^
Ok, it's my first GUI program on Linux, so i hope it's runs everywhere

Current Version: 0.2 (http://operation-overtired.de/stuff/PSPDockMaker.Linux.i386.tar.gz)

[Download]

Limits:
The number of pages is limted to 100 (That's isn't a problem by my program). If you have big manuals, game FAQs set in the options the height to 480. (I this isn't enough set size font size smaller or choose a smaller font).

Features:
- Auto convert files to the correct format and size
- Compression level (1-9) selectable
- Image support for *.png;*.jpg;*.jpeg;*.bmp; *.ico;*.ppm;*.pgm;*.pbm;* .xpm
- Text support for *.txt
- Preview
- Easy GUI

Requirements:
- X-Server
- GTK
- xterm
...or easyer: a normal desktop linux installation
Note: These binarys are i386 builds (32bit), for other please ask (64bit, Sparc)

Differences to Windows:
- Compression level (1-9) selectable
- GTK dialogs (of course ^^)
- Some other file-types (but jpg, bmp and png support both)
- Uses other picture renderer (I think the pictures looks better ^^)
- Uses a external PNG converter

ToDo:
- Add option: Split big images
- Small picture: Let user choose resize or not
(- Add support for .pdf, .doc, .html)

Guide:
How to create document files?
- Open PSPDocMaker
- Click on Select Files
- Mark File(s) and click on Open (Multi select is enabeld)
- (Enter the Game Code of the game) <- I've tested SCUS99999 and it works on a game with another code, maye it works on all games
- If you have added the file(s) you wan't click on Create
- Wait
- Select the dolder where your game is located
- Click on Save
- Done!

Troubleshooting:
- The Program didn't start: Start the program in a terminal and send me the output
- Didn't get a DOCUMENT.DAT: Try to compile the docmaker (located in src/) and the bmp2png (located in bmp2png-src/)
How?
Enter the folder in a terminal (with cd /path/)
Type make
If the program is finished, copy the binarys from source (src/ or bmp2png-src/) folder to the program folder (override the old)
- The Program shows errors or crash: Start the program in a terminal and send me the output
