*.bat scripts do not work for Mac/Linux
Closed this issue · 4 comments
Due to the fact that operating systems interpret .bat scripts differently, currently the following files only work on Windows:
make.batrelease/diff.batrelease/release.batplan/Gantt2html.bat
The problem basically boils down to (1) special newline characters, (2) special escaping characters, and (3) special sed syntax. Those are different from system to system (e.g., character ^ on Windows).
Mac and Linux users are asked to resolve this issue. Thanks!
Hey, I discovered your project today, I made some simple scripts in python to replace some .bat files (Gantt2html, pdf2png and protocol2beamer), I haven't implemented the ones on release yet. I don't know much about sharing code in github but we can figure it out if you're interested. I also modified pandoc.tex template because pandoc and latex were complaining about some csl missing feature in it. I'm running the build in Manjaro linux.
Thanks JF-soft, your contribution would be appreciated. Please open a new branch, commit your changes to it, and push to GitHub. I will test your new implementation and merge with master.
