The new version of the CMPG frontend for CMPEG :

- handles long file names;
- the batch file can be edited;
- now also has the Xing option;
- and has a doc added.

It is located at http://stols.net .
Since english is not my 1st language, I am prepared to accept your help to
make the doc readable :-)

I think the documentation is as good or better than others I've seen, so I
wouldn't worry about it.  I noticed two typos though, and possibly a couple
other things to think of changing but it's so minor it's not worth mentioning...
however I will anyhow, as follows:

An animation of the MPEG-1 type can be made starting from a series of
uncompressed TGA images using the encoding* {was compression} utility CMPEG.

---snip---

C.
You have to input the various filenames (complete paths) that take part in the
process of encoding.* {colon to period} The 3 files named* {was names} above:*
{semicolon to colon}
 the frame list* {removed semicolon}  --   8.3 type filename
 the batch file* {removed semicolon}   --   8.3 type filename
 the mpg file* {removed period}     --   8.3 type filename

D.
The various *options {was opions} that are required or necessary for CMPEG must
then be
chosen:
 textual output v
 cost function d
 block matching m
 frame rate  f
 Xing compression x* {removed the period}
For details see Eckart's documentation. These options are easily set in the
WFE; the defaults are good starting values.

---snipped again---

See? Nothing hardly at all.  The readablity and understandability seemed fine
enough besides.
A trial run of the WFE CMPG went flawlessly.  Thanks once again.

Any chance on a Linux/Unix version, we're a bit stuck over here for 
Mpeg stuff.

Steve,

I have to disappoint you: there is no one I know in the wide neighbourhood
who could lend me the tools to do that!

Sander,

are you using standard MFC controls in that application? If so,
chances are very good it will run under Wine. Hey, POV-Ray for Windows
can do it, so Steve, why not give Wine a try?

The application was compiled without MFC compatibility; when I switch that
on, the compiler tells me I need BCW5.0 or higher. Now as far as I know the
C++Builder v3.0 that I use for all this is the same as BCW5.02. But the
error stands. I know too little about these things to get any further here.
Perhaps somebody else?

I deleted windows, and don't really want to use windows stuff.  
I am considering writing an editor that does similar things to 
the POV editor for windows, ie, lets you mark text by holding 
down the shift key while moving the arrow keys.  If I do it it
won't be GUI, but will run in a terminal window, and will have 
a hotkey that lets you render the file that's currently open.

Vi and emax are an apsilute pig, cooledit is too bulky and it's 
GUI is a bit horrible, (no straight forward exit option on the 
menus etc), any other editors I've looked at don't have the Shift
marking facility or are variations on vi.  Why isn't there a decent
editor for Unix that has these simple features?

  Emacs. You just have to configure it properly.
