| 01:15.17 | yukonbob | can I scale/translate/rotate a region or group? For example, if I've got a complex object that I want combined w/ some surface multiple times, in a pattern, what's the best way to approach this? |
| 02:24.53 | smallfoot- | dunno |

| 03:53.15 | brlcad | yukonbob: yes, you can -- this is a "matrix edit" or an "object edit" depending whether you're doing it through the gui or the command line respectively |
| 03:53.51 | brlcad | if it's actually a regular pattern, the pattern tool should be able to actually make all of the (shallow) copies for you |
| 04:12.03 | MinstrelGypsy | cd brlcad |

| 04:17.51 | brlcad | run: echo "test" | sed |
| 04:17.54 | brlcad | what does it output? |
| 04:18.24 | MinstrelGypsy | usage screen |
| 04:18.35 | brlcad | k, thanks |
| 04:18.41 | MinstrelGypsy | welcome |
| 04:20.04 | brlcad | try: echo "test" | sed "s/test/test/" |
| 04:20.46 | MinstrelGypsy | reports test |
| 04:21.18 | MinstrelGypsy | i don't use sed much directly sorry im so slow |
| 04:21.50 | MinstrelGypsy | will --verbose on autogen help nail it down |
| 04:22.17 | MinstrelGypsy | no |
| 04:22.21 | brlcad | no, it's just an eary test to make sure all the tools the script uses are available |
| 04:22.24 | MinstrelGypsy | doesn't even get started |
| 04:22.25 | CIA-4 | BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/ (autogen.sh bench/run.sh): gnu sed apparently doesn't read from stdin, so make a custom test for it. |
| 04:22.48 | brlcad | that should fix it |
| 04:22.48 | MinstrelGypsy | thankyou |
| 04:23.36 | MinstrelGypsy | we'll know in a few minutes |
| 04:25.46 | MinstrelGypsy | same thing |
| 04:28.36 | CIA-4 | BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/bench/run.sh: use VERBOSE_ECHO instead of testing DEBUG |
| 04:29.29 | CIA-4 | BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/autogen.sh: oops, one char typo -- try again |
| 04:48.01 | MinstrelGypsy | sure just a sec |
| 04:50.23 | MinstrelGypsy | much better |
| 04:50.26 | MinstrelGypsy | :) |
| 04:52.01 | yukonbob | ?are there better manuals than the "VolumeII-Introduction to MGED", etc.... even wikis or other online materials... "Intro to..." is a great introduction, but something with more depth would be welcome :) |
| 04:52.20 | yukonbob | s/better manuals/more extensive/ |
| 04:52.27 | MinstrelGypsy | look in the html dir |
| 04:53.49 | MinstrelGypsy | or did you know about the pdf docs on http://brlcad.org? |
| 04:53.55 | brlcad | yukonbob: yes, there's .. Vol III .. as well as a slew of manpages, html docs, and other docs embedded in the source code too |
| 04:55.05 | yukonbob | MinstrelGypsy: I got the PDFs from the brlcad.org... I did check the html earlier and it seemed incomplete for what I was searching at the time, but I should make mental note to check the included html for each case ;) |
| 04:55.25 | MinstrelGypsy | :) |
| 04:55.37 | brlcad | in the source distribution, there's a "doc" directory that has a lot of extra stuff of varying quality |
| 04:56.32 | brlcad | it's a bit of a stomping group for any and all documentation, whether new or old/outdated, but often many of the docs there get into details more quickly |
| 04:57.53 | yukonbob | are either of you devs, or pretty familiar w/ the build process? another q: I have is why my build didn't like my already installed tcl/tk/itcl/itk etc. Is that pretty typical that brlcad wants to build it's own? Is it for particular reason, or I need to feed better hints to ./configure? |
| 04:58.05 | brlcad | that said, they're *all* works in progress, and even the rather extensive tutorial series (which took a couple years to put together) are even "incomplete" in many respects |
| 04:58.30 | brlcad | yukonbob: i'm the lead dev |
| 05:00.17 | poolio | are there other devs? |
| 05:07.20 | brlcad | poolio: yes, though they only periodically/rarely show their faces on IRC |
| 05:13.32 | MinstrelGypsy | mean i should get off the channel then :P |
| 05:13.51 | MinstrelGypsy | just kidding poolio, i'm not dev |

| 05:56.10 | CIA-4 | BRL-CAD: add support for automatic logging of benchmark results to a file. this is so |
| 05:56.10 | CIA-4 | BRL-CAD: users don't have to rerun and/or manually capture output if they want to review |
| 05:56.10 | CIA-4 | BRL-CAD: the output in detail. also included is the date/time and uname of the system |
| 05:56.10 | CIA-4 | BRL-CAD: running the analysis. make the file path searching output verbose-only now. |
| 05:56.12 | CIA-4 | BRL-CAD: docs updated to reflect all these changes. |

| 07:54.30 | yukonbob | :) another Q when somebody gets the time: Is there a discussion of "copies" versus "references" of/to objects available? I see reference (no pun intended) to it in VolIII... |
