Homepage now up to date!

It has taken me six days since releasing GradeL 0.9.0 to get the homepage at gradel.sf.net updated. Since I last used the shell service provided by SourceForge they have changed the way I access my web files. In the past I just used gFTP with SSH2 and I was able to connect. Now that's not enough. The server now requires SSH key authentication, which took me a while to configure.

SourceForge provides documentation, which explains things pretty well, but I was still hitting a road block. The step I had been missing was uploading my public key to the server. The documentation seemed to say that I would have to upload several files, but in the end I was only required to paste the contents of my id_dsa.pub file to my account page.

During this process, I also learned to use Nautilus to browse the remote server just as I do my local drive, which I find very cool. Anyway, I'm mainly writing this entry to remind myself of the process and also to assist others like me who have trouble reading something right under their nose!

Take care.

GradeL goes Gambas2 with 0.9.0 release!

Just uploaded release 0.9.0 of GradeL to the SourceForge site. In addition to changes that I've made over the last few months, this version is targeted at Gambas2. It has been successfully tested on Gambas2 2.4.1 on an Ubuntu Gutsy box. If you need Gambas2 packages for Gutsy, check out packages available here.

A .deb package of GradeL 0.9.0 may follow. Stay tuned!

For now, feel free to download the source here.

Take care!
