Developer Getting Started

• Install each of the items listed in BuildRequirements.
• Get the code from Subversion
• Open a DOS/terminal window where the code is (e.g. c:\workspace\wikidpad\work)

To run WikidPad from source

from the working directory (e.g. c:\workspace\wikidpad\work):

set PYTHONPATH=lib
python WikidPad.py

see WikidPadFromSource

To build and generate executable

py2exe must be installed for this to work.

set PYTHONPATH=lib
bld.bat

This will generate a "build" directory and a "dist" directory.

To create a WikidPad.exe distribution

Modify the version number of wikidPad in all 3 of the following places:

setup.py
wikidpad_unicode.iss
and the constant "VERSION_STRING" in WikidPadStarter.py.

(Yes, this could be better.)

Finally, double click "wikidpad_unicode.iss" and compile it with ISTool/Inno Setup.
