RAMU - Rockbox Auto Management Utility - topic (for CygWin only).

(1/3) > >>

Hello,

I made this RAMU script (to use with CygWin only) that meant to automate some basic building/managing tasks, like update, build, patching/reverting...

I'd like to hear some feedback about it - what is good, what is bad, what parts need improvements, if it worked for You etc.

Thanks.

pkdick:
Is it possible to configure the Rockbox Auto Management Utility to operate in a non english environment (e.g. french vista)?: I tried to use it but it appeared that the commands it was sending to cygwin were not properly expressed. For example "cd rockbox/build" was cd rockbox:build...

Thank you in advance

Hi pkdick, I have successfully tested RAMU with English and Hebrew environment (XP not Vista though). I can't see any problems that could appear in any latin-based languages.

Is this cd rockbox/build folder is inside c:\cygwin\home\ ?

Try to write the settings directly to .ini file (not via GUI), don't forget to use slashes - "/" and not back slashes - "\".

pkdick:
Hello,

No the rockbox folder is located in the users directory (cygwin directory was created in the c: root).

I tried what you proposed without result: as I am not a programmer, I am a little bit limited...

sanusart:
So this is the problem.  Your building directory should be in the cygwin's home/USER_NAME/ for this to work properly, as cygwin is emulating unix file structure - no spaces in paths etc. I am not programmer ether - RAMU written on 'auto hot key', so it only sends key-strokes to the CMD window.
