<title>Introduction</title>
|
|
<para> The <application>&app;</application> is a genealogical
|
|
application. &app; is an acronym for the
|
|
Genealogical Research and Analysis Management Programming System. To put
|
|
it shortly, it allows you to store, edit, and research genealogical data
|
|
using your computer. Its functionality is somewhat common to other
|
|
genealogical programs. However, <application>&app;</application> offers
|
|
some unique features. </para>
|
|
|
|
<sect2 id="why-gramps">
|
|
<title>Why &app;?</title>
|
|
<para> <application>&app;</application> was conceived under the concept
|
|
that most genealogy programs were designed to provide the researcher the
|
|
capability to input information related to a particular family tree.
|
|
Most of these programs have allowed for the arranging and storing of
|
|
information consistent with the GEDCOM standards. They usually provide
|
|
means for displaying descendant or ancestral relationships by means of
|
|
graphical displays, charts, or reports. These may be augmented with
|
|
pictures or other media to enhance the data. Most provide for inputting
|
|
data on unconnected individuals/families that may or may not have a
|
|
relationship to the primary surname being researched. Various other
|
|
enhancements may also be provided in the genealogical program that
|
|
allows for different degrees of importing and exporting data from other
|
|
programs and printing the data contained in the various reports. </para>
|
|
|
|
<para> <application>&app;</application>, on the other hand, attempts to
|
|
provide all of the common capabilities of these programs, but, more
|
|
importantly, to provide an additional capability of integration not common
|
|
to these programs. This is the ability to input any bits and pieces of
|
|
information directly into <application>&app;</application> and
|
|
rearrange/manipulate any/all data events in the entire data base (in any
|
|
order or sequence) to assist the user in doing research, analysis and
|
|
correlation with the potential of filling relationship gaps. In short, a
|
|
tool that provides a way to input all your research into one place and do
|
|
your analysis and correlation using the speed, power, and accuracy of your
|
|
computer instead of pencils and unmanageable reams of paper. </para>

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

<application>&app;</application> 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
|
|
few thousand people). </para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Its is hard to tell which format is better, since this is a typical
|
|
tradeoff 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 of with ZODB. </para>

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

relations (such as adoption, step-parenthood, guardianship, etc.).

placed over the family line, the line changes color to indicate an

active link: double-clicking on the line makes the corresponding

<title>Generating Reports</title>
|
|
<para> Reports are the most common form of the output produced by
|
|
genealogical research. Majority of genealogical software puts a lot
|
|
of emphasis on developing nicely looking reports. &app; is no
|
|
exception in this regard: it offers a variety of reports to choose
|
|
from. &app; can generate reports in a multitude of open formats, both
|
|
text based and graphical. &app; can also produce screen based reports
|
|
that are convenient for viewing the summary of your database.
|
|
Finally, &app; can generate a web-site suitable for immediate
|
|
posting on the Internet. All these are almost infinitely flexible:
|
|
you get to design and choose the style for your reports. </para>
|
|
|
|
<para> All reports can be accessed through the menu by choosing
|
|
<menuchoice><guimenu>Reports</guimenu>
|
|
<guisubmenu><replaceable>Report Type</replaceable></guisubmenu>
|
|
<guimenuitem><replaceable>Particular
|
|
Report</replaceable></guimenuitem></menuchoice>. Alternatively,
|
|
you can browse the complete selection of available reports along
|
|
with their brief descriptions in a <guilabel>Report
|
|
Selection</guilabel> dialog evoked by clicking

<guibutton>Reports</guibutton> on the toolbar.
