History for NGReleases

??changed:
-
StructuredTextNG is still under development. There aren't any formal 
releases. There may not be any until it is incorporated into
Zope releases. 

You can get the current version of StructuredTextNG using
the "Zope public CVS", http://classic.zope.org:8080/Community/CVS_public_access.

Here are instructions, which are specific to StructuredTextNG.

First, login to the public CVS server::

  cvs -d :pserver:[email protected]:/cvs-repository login    

when prompted for a password, enter **anonymous**.

Then checkout StructuredText::

  cvs -z7 -d :pserver:[email protected]:/cvs-repository co -dStructuredText -rStructuredText-Dev Zope2/lib/python/StructuredText

This command differs a bit from the command for checking out Zope
and a few of the options deserve some special mention:

  'co' -- an abreviation for 'checkout' to make the command a tad shorter.

  'Zope2/lib/python/StructuredText' -- is used to checkout
     *just* StructuredText, rather than all of Zope.

  '-dStructuredText' -- Specifies the target directory. If this is
     omitted, then the files would be checked out into
     'Zope2/lib/python/StructuredText'

  '-rStructuredText-Dev' -- Checkout the 'StructuredText-Dev' CVS branch.
    This is **important**. StructuredTextNG is *only* available on
    this branch. If you ommit this option, then you will only get the
    classic StructuredText implementation included with Zope.

 Looks like StructuredTextNG has been quietly incorporated into 
 released zope, at least as of 2.3.3. Yay! Did I miss an announcement ?
 If not I think there should be one. Didn't see it even in CHANGES.txt.

 Would it be possible to provide StructuredTextNG under version 2.0 of the Zope Public License (or any other GPL-compatible license)? I would like to use the package extensively in a "project of mine":http://lyterate.sf.net/intro.html which is published under the GPL.

 Actually, by sheer luck I've found that there *is* a version of StructuredTextNG
 under ZPL 2.0. Instead of the complicated checkout command above, you have to do::
 
     cvs -d:pserver:[email protected]:/cvs-repository co StandaloneSTX
 
 If this is the "correct" current version, maybe this page should be updated?
