<title>Command line reference</title>

<para>This appendix provides the reference to the command line
|
||||
capabilities available when launching &app; from the terminal. </para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>Let us note here that &app; was designed to be an interactive
|
||||
program. Therefore it uses graphical display and cannot run from the
|
||||
true non-graphical console. It would take an enormous amount of effort
|
||||
to enable it to run in a text-only terminal. This is why the set of
|
||||
command line options does not aim to completely get rid of dependency
|
||||
on the graphical display. Rather, it merely makes certain (typical) tasks
|
||||
more convenient. It also allows one to execute these tasks from the scripts.
|
||||
However, the graphical display must be accessible at all times!
|
||||
</para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>To summarize, the use of the command line options provides
|
||||
non-interactive behavior, but does not get rid of graphical display
|
||||
dependency. Take it or leave it!

|

<title>Media Objects</title>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>Before describing preferences for media objects, let us
|
||||
review the background on local and non-local objects. A local object
|
||||
is the object whose file is stored inside the same directory in which
|
||||
the &app; database file resides. A non-local object is stored
|
||||
elsewhere, so that the database has only the reference to the file's
|
||||
location and some records of the object's properties. </para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>You may choose to store your media objects either locally
|
||||
or externally. Making your objects local will increase the amount
|
||||
of disk space consumed by the &app; database directory. However,
|
||||
if the external file is deleted or removed, &app; will still be able
|
||||
to use the local copy. In contrast, leaving your objects non-local
|
||||
will decrease the disk space requirements. However, losing the
|
||||
original file will render your media object unusable.
|
||||
</para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>Note that exporting your database to any format will compile
|
||||
all medial objects, no matter whether they are local or not.
|
||||
Specifically, export to gramps package will include all the media
|
||||
object files in the package and change the references accordingly.
|
||||
Export to CD will copy all media object files to the directory under
|
||||
the <guilabel>burn:///</guilabel> location in Nautilus and change the
|
||||
references accordingly. Finally, export to GEDCOM will place all
|
||||
media object files next to the GEDCOM file with the appropriate
|
||||
changes in the path names.

&app; makes every effort to maintain compatibility with GEDCOM, the general

|

|

<para>
|

It is important to understand that the GEDCOM standard is poorly implemented --
|

virtually every genealogical software has its own "flavor" of GEDCOM. As we
|
||||
learn about new flavor, the import/export filters can be created very quickly.
|
||||
However, finding out about the unknown flavors requires user feedback.
|

Please feel free to inform us about any GEDCOM flavor not supported by &app;,
|

and we will do our best to support it!

Yes. Different people have different ideas of what a genealogical tree is.
|

Some think of it as a chart going from the distant ancestor and listing
|
||||
all his/her descendants and their families. Others think it should be a

chart going from the person back in time, listing the ancestors and their

families. Yet other people think of a table, text report, etc. </para>

<para>

&app; can produce any of the above, and many more different charts and

reports. Moreover, the plugin architechture enables users (you) to create

their own plugins which could be new reports, charts, or research tools.

&app; can store web addresses and direct your browser to them. It can import

data that you download from the Internet. It can export data that you could

send over the Internet. &app; is familiar with the standard file formats
|
||||
widely used on the Internet (e.g. JPEG, PNG, and GIF images, MP3, OGG, and
|
||||
WAV sound files, QuickTime, MPEG, and AVI movie files, etc). Other than that,

there is little that a genealogical program can do with the Internet :-)

|

<varlistentry><term>Can I create custom reports/filters/whatever?</term>
|
||||
<listitem><para>
|
||||
Yes. There are many levels of customization. One is creating or modifying
|
||||
the templates used for the reports. This gives you some control over
|
||||
the fonts, colors, and some layout of the reports. You can also use &app;
|
||||
controls in the report dialogs to tell what contents should be used for a
|
||||
particular report. In addition to this, you have an ability to create your
|
||||
own filters -- this is useful in selecting people based on criteria set
|
||||
by you. You can combine these filters to create new, more complex filters.
|
||||
Finally, you have an option to create your own plugins. These may be new
|
||||
reports, research tools, import/export filters, etc. This assumes some
|
||||
knowledge of programming in Python.

The nice thing about the standards is that there never is a shortage of

them :-). &app; is tested to support the following flavors of GEDCOM:
|
||||
GEDCOM5.5, Brother's Keeper, Family Origins, Familty Tree Maker, Ftree,
|

GeneWeb, Legacy, Personal Ancestral File, Pro-Gen, Reunion, and

<listitem><para>
|

&app; has no hard limits on the size of a database that it can handle.
|
||||
In reality, however, there are practical limits. Currently &app; loads all
|
||||
data into memory, so the limiting factor tends to be the available memory
|
||||
on the system.

|

|
||||
<varlistentry><term>How many people can &app; database handle?</term>
|
||||
<listitem><para>
|
||||
We have found that on a typical system, &app; tends to bog down after the
|
||||
database has around 15,000 people. Again, this is dependant on how much
|
||||
memory you have.

|
||||
|
||||
<varlistentry><term>Why is &app; running so slowly?</term>
|
||||
<listitem><para>
|
||||
If &app; seems too slow to you, it is most likely that you have a large
|
||||
database. Currently, &app; loads all the database into memory, therefore
|
||||
large databases tend to be less than responsive. Specifically, the system
|
||||
can be virtually brought to its knees if swapping is needed for &app;' data.
|
||||
</para> <para>
|
||||
This will be addressed in the next stable release following version 1.0.
|
||||
Temporarily, adding more memory could make a huge difference, but we realize
|
||||
that this is a poor way of treating the problem. If you would like to help
|
||||
with the implementation of the real database backend, please don't hesitate
|

<varlistentry><term>My database is really big.
|

Is there a way around loading all the data into memory?</term>
|
||||
<listitem><para>
|
||||
Currently, there is no way around it. However, this is our biggest priority
|
||||
after releasing version 1.0. The real database backend will be incorporated
|
||||
in the next stable release (1.2) which will dramatically improve performance
|
||||
in both speed and memory usage.

<varlistentry><term>Why are non-latin characters displayed
|
||||
as garbage in PDF/PS reports?</term>
|
||||
<listitem><para>
|
||||
This is a known problem -- PS (and PDF) have builtin fonts which pretty much
|
||||
reflect the latin-1 charset. Any font in principle could be used with PS/PDF
|
||||
but then it would have to be embedded in the file. This is problematic since
|
||||
every system has different idea about fonts and their setup.</para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
This should be resolved as we move to gnome-print. In the meantime, a useable
|
||||
workaround is to generate reports in OpenOffice.org format and then export
|
||||
to PDF from the OpenOffice.org application.

<varlistentry><term>I would like to contribute to &app; by writing

my favorite report. How do I do that?</term>
|

<listitem><para>
|
||||
The easiest way to contribute to reports, filters, tools, etc. is to copy
|
||||
an existing &app; report, filter, or tool. If you can create what you want
|
||||
by modifying existing code -- great! If your idea does not fit into the logic
|
||||
of any existing &app; tool, the <ulink
|
||||
url="http://gramps.sourceforge.net/phpwiki/index.php/GrampsDevelopersPage"
|
||||
type="http">following page</ulink> may provide some help in writing your
|
||||
own plugin from scratch.
|
||||
|
||||
If you need more help or would like to discuss your idea with us,
|
||||
please do not hesitate to contact us at <ulink
|
||||
url="mailto:gramps-devel@lists.sf.net"
|
||||
type="mailto">gramps-devel@lists.sf.net</ulink>
|
||||
</para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
To test your work in progress, you may save your plugin under
|
||||
<replaceable>$HOME/.gramps/plugins</replaceable> directory and it should
|
||||
be found and imported on startup.
|
||||
The correctly written plugin will register itself with &app;, create menu
|
||||
item, and so on.</para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
If you are happy with your plugin and would like to contribute your code
|
||||
back to the &app; project, you are very welcome to do so by contacting us
|
||||
at <ulink url="mailto:gramps-devel@lists.sf.net"

The best thing you can do is to fix the bug and send the patch to

The next best thing would be to submit a good bug report. This can be done in

<ulink url="mailto:gramps-bugs@lists.sf.net"
|

type="mailto">gramps-bugs@lists.sf.net</ulink>
|

or (2) file your report with the bug tracker system at

To ensure this, please follow up on your bug reports. In particular, if you

file a bug report with sf.net bug tracker, PLEASE log in to sf.net before
|

filing
|

(register your free account if you don't have one). Then we will have a way
|

of contacting you should we need more information. If you choose to file your

|

has something new posted, as it probably would.</para>

<varlistentry><term>It is obvious that &app; absolutely needs to
|
||||
become a (client-server/web-based/PHP/weblog/Javascript/C++/distributed/KDE/Motif/Tcl/Win32/C#/You-name-it)
|
||||
application. When is this going to happen?</term>
|
||||
<listitem><para>
|
||||
The surest way to see it happen is to get it done by yourself. Since
|
||||
&app; is free/open source, nobody prevents you from taking all of the
|
||||
code and continuing its development in whatever direction you see fit.
|
||||
In doing so, you may consider giving your new project another name to
|
||||
avoid confusion with the continuing &app; development. If you would
|
||||
like the &app; project to provide advice, expertise, filters, etc.,
|
||||
we will gladly cooperate with your new project, to ensure compatability
|
||||
or import/export options to your new format of a project.</para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
If, however, you would like the &app; project to to adopt your strategy,
|
||||
you would need to convince &app; developers that your strategy is good
|
||||
for &app; and superior to the present development strategy.</para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
HINT: if &app; developers are still not convinced after about three
|
||||
messages sent to gramps-devel, maybe you are better off on your own
|
||||
rather than with a company of retards who can't fully realize the
|
||||
potential of your great idea :-)

<title>Optional ZODB support</title>

<para>If either StandaloneZODB or Zope is installed on your system,

&app; will give you the third option of

creating a new ZODB database. You can choose to start your new database
|
||||
in either XML or ZODB format. Both formats have their strong and weak
|
||||
points.</para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>XML stands for eXtensible Markup Language, and is a human readable
|
||||
structured description of data. It could be easily parsed by other
|
||||
programs should the need occur. It stores only the data itself. Its weak
|
||||
point is the relatively low speed of processing large data files. </para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>ZODB stands for Zope Object Database and provides the full-fledged
|
||||
database support. ZODB files are not human readable. They contain a
|
||||
certain overhead to assist working with large data structures. However,
|
||||
ZODB provides a significant speed-up when the database size is large (over
|
||||
a few thousand people). </para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>Its is hard to tell which format is better, since this is a typical
|
||||
trade-off situation. If you are starting your research then you are likely
|
||||
to be fine with the regular XML database. If you have tons of data to
|
||||
import describing thousands upon thousands of people, then you are
|

probably better off with ZODB. </para>

<para>Views are the various ways to display different aspects of

genealogical information, as described below. Since the relevant

information is very broad and non-uniform in both context and modality,

it is best to split its display into smaller categories, uniform in

context and modality. Each View represents such a split and displays a

certain portion of overall available information. Before the detailed

description of available Views, let us guide you through the ways of

switching between the Views.</para>

right side. The <guibutton>+</guibutton> and <guibutton>-</guibutton>

the selected child the Active person. The next two buttons add a new

database to the family. Finally, the lowest <guibutton>-</guibutton>

<para>The Pedigree View helps to visualize the place of the Active

person in the tree of his/her ancestors. The Pedigree View shows four

generations, going back in time from the Active person

to grandparents <guilabel>3</guilabel>, to great-grandparents

Each person is denoted by a box bearing the person's name.

The two lines that converge on the box represent ties with the

person's Father (top line) and mother (bottom line). Solid lines
|

represent birth relations, while dashed lines represent non-birth
|
||||
relations (such as adoption, step-parenthood, guardianship, etc.).
|
||||
When the mouse moves over the white box, it expands to display the
|
||||
corresponding person's dates of birth and death. When the mouse is
|
||||
placed over the family line, the line become highlighted to indicate
|
||||
an active link: double-clicking on the line makes the corresponding
|

ancestor the Active person. The display in that case is re-adjusted

to show four generations, starting from the newly selected Active
