PechaMaker

[snip] I hope PechaPub can get started soon. Please contribute your ideas and help. Thanks FWJ! :-) I wanted to let people know that almost all future updates to the PechaPublisher project will be made via the pechapub-dev mail list. Barring big news, I won't abuse the generosity of the PechaMaker ...

..... I'm crafting the message now... and based on your activities with Pango, etc., you may be quite interested in contributing :-) More soon, I look forward to hearing more about this. - Chris For those that come along later and read this, the announcement about this project was made in the follo...

At this point I don't even know how many people are using the existing PechaMaker so I have no idea if a Mac port is worth the effort. I first started using PechaMaker when I was working with the second set of monks that ca...

Hey all, I thought I'd add my Mac OS X experience to the discussion :-) Crossover: I have installed and run PechaMaker with Crossover, but it didn't run reliably. It was sometime last year, so I don't remember the issues, but there were several. It ended up being essentially useless for me. This is ...
