I had a good week mostly rewriting the help. There are also some bug fixes.
help
Keeping help files up to date is a chore. It takes a long time and there are always more fun things to be working on, so it is easy to put it off.
I put it off for way too long, so nearly everything needed work. New users were often thrown off.
So, I've gone over everything, caught it all up, made it all a bit more concise and explicit, and updated the screenshots. As always, the online link is:
http://hydrusnetwork.github.io/hydrus/
And you get a local copy in the release. I hope this makes it a bit easier for people trying to pick the software up. Let me know if I have forgotten anything. I have made a repeating task in my to-do to regularly recheck and update the help in future, so I shouldn't have to do a full rewrite like this again.
By the way, some users are looking at working on a wikia placeholder I created ages ago and mostly forgot about. If you are interested in writing an article, please check it out here:
http://hydrus.wikia.com/wiki/Hydrus_Network_Wiki
If this turns out to be a place where tutorials or a list of repos ends up or something, I'll link it officially in all my usual places.
full list
- revised all the help files
- updated out of date screenshots in the help files
- added some more screenshots to the help's index
- cleaned out unused help images
- fixed some missing service error catching in the custom filter setup dialog
- fixed random reordering of paths from import files selection dialog
- logged errors should now be prefixed by the time they occured
- errors should now be more reliably printed to the log
- fixed a problem with e621 queries that included '/'
- improved some server temp file error handling
- fixed a typo that was throwing errors when trash settings were set to 'no limit'
next week
I didn't have time to add default mimetype handling options (e.g. by default, open mp4s externally), so I'll do that first. There's also some general rewrite work and other little jobs that I'd like to clean out before I start something big.
