Just successed on building TeXmacs on MacOS.
Here is my plan on improving TeXmacs:
+ I will host my improvements on https://github.com/sadhen/texmacs
+ Each improvement will be maintained at github on each branch.
I’m working on the cmake branch these days to provide a CMake build for TeXmacs. Since cmake won’t affect the current build system. I hope the code can be merged into the SVN repo later.
After completion of the cmake branch, I am going to integrate my previous work (the TeXmacs Git Plugin) into TeXmacs code base.
Dear TeXmacs Developers:
I was a casual contributor of TeXmacs when I was a student. I love the design of TeXmacs.
I’m interested in:
1. upgrade guile
2. improve typesetting on CJK (http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?47186)
3. typesetting on source code (eg. http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?8899)
However, TeXmacs is inactive and cannot attract new contributors(do not know if it is a fact).
In my opinion, the following is necessary:
1. switch to git
2. switch to github or gitlab
3. write a detailed how-to-contribute doc
What’s your opinion? What’s the reason we still stick to SVN? What is the extra effort to switch to git?
I’m willing to help switching to Git.
