Hello Urs,

Thanks for the information.

Is Mac OS X a possible OS to download the code and contribute, once there’s a running Frescobaldi-dev already installed, or is Linux to be preferred?

Yes you can change the log font in the prefs, see edit→prefs→ tools→log. Pressing up/down in the search entry jumps between results.

I develop Frescobaldi in my free spare time. Helping out is not difficult; just clone git or fork on github.

I'd like to add some details to this.

The requirement to contribute is writing Python code.
Frescobaldi is developed with PyQt, but it isn't really a requirement to know that beforehand. It's quite possible to dive into this while getting acquainted with the code base.

You will need some time to get your way through the architecture, but Frescobaldi is written very cleanly so it is as easy as possible to understand it. The only thing one could argue about (and that can make it somewhat harder to get into it) is the rather sparing use of code comments.

If you should actually start to contribute you will notice that there is a very welcoming spirit towards contributions :-)

Best
Urs

Hello Folks,

I’ve installed it seamlessly on Mac OS X 10.9 (Mavericks) with Mac Ports some time ago (i.e. before the Poppler installation change in MacPorts), and it works fine. In particular, selecting a note to locate its position in the code is most welcome.

Some questions:

- Find and Find Next don’t seem to work as expected: the former displays all occurrences, and the latter doesn’t select the next one;

- is there a way to ave the LP journal in a larger font?

- needs some adaptations to 2.18, as already mentionned in this list, in particular for keywords suggestions;

- is it easy to contribute to its development?

Cheers, and a happy new year!

JM
