FileGarden relies heavily on these programs , without them FileGarden is not needed.Thanks to the
developers of these programs.The images use in this sofware are taken from RedHat Linux 9 distribution.
If there are errors showing in the video processing terminal during video conversions
eg.segmentation faults or illegel instructions etc , than you must compile and build Mplayer and / or
Mjpeg tools directly from the source package (do not forget to enable the GUI switch when configuring
the Mplayer build eg." ./configure --enable-gui ")
Spend more time on getting these applications , especially Mplayer and mencoder , run correctly in the
first place , even if you dump FileGarden , there are so many other good applications out there which
are using and require them as helper tools ...

Do not hesitate to request or search for anything in this
forum.This forum is closely monitored.
Email : alred2@lycos.com
Do not hesitate to email me if you run into any problems in installation
or using XFG.
Important : The help file will be updated quite often.
As of version FileGarden1.2.4A ,
Every minor updates and patches will be release by replacing this package without
replacing the version number.There will be new version releases when there are major
features upgrade or major bug fixes.So if you encounter any bugs and errors in the
program , then you should try to download only this package and install again.You
don't need to download the runtime package.
Check the release date for this package on the download page.
.
note : Try to follow the file directory structure for first time installation :
Step 1. Login as root,Uncompress "filegarden1.2.xx.tar.gz" and "borland-runtime-lib.tar.gz"
into " /opt " under the root directory .Note that you need not install
"borland-runtime-lib.tar.gz" if you FileGarden was already installed on youe machine before,
and you HAVE NOT DELETED these directories :
/opt/
- redstone/
- FileGarden/
- mainlib/
FileGarden was design in a way that you can install a copy over an older/previous copy.
You need only delete the directory " ~/redstone " if you want to.
If you already have a working XFG installed,then rename or delete file
" [your HOME]/redstone/FileGarden/xfg.conf " and go directly to step 8.
Step 2. Put line this into /etc/ld.so.conf
/opt/redstone/mainlib
Step 3. Type ldconfig in your terminal and press enter
Step 4. Put line this into your login startup script
example : ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/redstone/mainlib
Step 5. Create a symlink from " /opt/redstone/FileGarden/filegarden-install "
to " /usr/bin/filegarden-install "
eg. ln -s /opt/redstone/FileGarden/filegarden-install /usr/bin/
Step 6. Logout your linux session( ** not X session ** ) and login again
Step 7. Login as normal user , type " filegarden-install "
in your terminal and press enter.This will install the program into
your home directory. eg. " ~/redstone/FileGarden "
Watch for errors in your terminal and send me an email if problems
with libraries not found , runtime error , segmentation faults etc
Step 8. Execute the command " ~/redstone/FileGarden/FileGarden " from your terminal.
The above procedure should work , email me if you encounter any
problem.
NOTE :
A very good place to start with for Kylix problems ...
1.2.1.Working with file listing on the editor
If XFG show an error dialog box stating " Error loading files ",then you should make
sure the " File list " mode check-box at the lower left corner of the main window is
correctly checked or unchecked.
Most the menu item commands work with the " File list " mode check-box checked,which
means the content of the currently active editor contains file listing,even the file
listing was paseted or embeded by doubled-clicking of file manager file item onto an
active editor which already contained text previously opened.XFG will always try to
parse the whole content and search for any occurence of file listing ( the file name
with full path must be on a whole new line by itself ) and forward the found file
listing to the calling menu item command.There is advantage and disadvantage for this
feature,so be careful and know what you are doing before you execute any menu item
command.
1.2.2.Files Copy , Move , Delete and Create symbolic links speed button commands
These file commands are done by the following source and destination relations :
[file command] from [file listing on the editor] to [active file manager directory]
We set the [active file manager directory] by clicking on either left-hand side icon
view container or the right-hand side detail file listing container.
1.2.3.The recognition of file mimes type from file listing on the editor
XFG will not try to recognise the file mimes type from file listing on the editor.
Every file is a file forward to the menu item command.So if you forward a postscript
file to " ImageMagick " menu item command for file conversion to JEPG format,it listerns
to you.That is a sound feature.
But if you forward a postscript file to " Ghostscript " menu item command for file
conversion to postscript format,it listerns to you.That is not a well thought of feature.
1.2.4.Commands that might cause us some regrets :
Speed buttons for " Delete " , " Copy " , " Move " and " Create symbolic link "
Be very careful with these command,you must know what you are doing.
1.3.1.Embed file listing onto the editor from the file manager
Make sure the " Toggle file list mode " speed button,the third one from the upper
right-hand corner of the file manager is toggled.If " File list mode " is enabled,
the button image will show an opened folder.If " File list mode " is not enabled,
the button image will show a closed folder.At the same time the " File list " mode
check-box at the lower left-hand conrner of the main window corresponds to the toggle
states of the " Toggle file list mode " speed button.
note : If " File list " mode is off,the content of the file item will then
be paseted onto the editor or appended if the editor is not empty.
1.3.2.Embed directory listing onto the editor from the file manager
By double-clicking on file item within the file manager,if it is a file,full path plus
the file name will be embed onto the editor.If it is a directory,the directory will
just be expanded.To embed directory listing,click on the " To editor " speed button on
the upper left-hend corner of the file manager with the " Toggle file list mode "
speed button set to " File list " mode.
1.3.3.Try to expand a directory from the icon view hang XFG
Trying to expand a directory with more then 500 but less than 1000 files count is slow
from the icon view.If the files count count is more than 1000,then the directory will be
expanded onto the faster(but still slow) detail file listing which is on the right-hand side
of the file manager.
1.5.1.How to invoke Thumbnail veiwer
By cklicking on the top or bottom " View image thumbnails " speed button from the file
manager.
1.5.2.Selecting and unselecting images
Single-click to select single or multiple images
Double-click to unselect all selected images.
1.5.3.Viewing images on the image viewer
Right-click on any image from the thumbnail viewer to view the selected image on the
image viewer.
1.5.4.Files Copy , Move , Delete and Create symbolic links speed button commands
These file commands are done by the following source and destination relations :
[file command] from [image thumbnail viewer] to [active file manager directory]
We set the [active file manager directory] by clicking on either left-hand side icon
view container or the right-hand side detail file listing container.
1.6.1.Using the image viewer
Left-click to go forward to the next image
Right-click to go backward to the previous image
1.7.1.Playing VCD
You can access the menuitem from the main program menu or the file manager popup menu

1.8.1.Video editing
You can access the menuitem " Video tools " from the main program menu or the file manager popup menu
The menuitem " Convert image " and " Create background canvas " from " ImageMagick " main menuitem
can help in create images for Mpeg output.The " Rename " menuitem can help in organising and numbering
multiple image files.
XFG uses external video encoding / decoding tools to achieve video editing capabability.
They must be installed before you can edit any video files.
Download locations for external video tools :
Mplayer / Mencoder : Download from http://www.mplayerhq.hu/homepage/design7/dload.html important :: Best is to compile and build from the source package !!
Mjpeg tools : Download from http://sourceforge.net/projects/mjpeg important :: Best is to compile and build from the source package !!
All the video processing run in the background.
Currently there is no progress indictor for video processing built in XFG.
If you are going to do a lengthy video processing job , it is better for you to run XFG from
a command shell so you can watch what is going on behind XFG.
1.8.2.Sound editing
You can access the menuitem " Sound tools " from the main program menu or the file manager popup menu
can help in create images for Mpeg output.The " Rename " menuitem can help in organising and numbering
multiple image files.The menuitem " Multiplex Mpeg video / audio " from " Video tools " can be used for
creating a Mpeg movie.

1.9.2.Locations of LaTeX formating configuration files
Email me , alred2@lycos.com , problems,suggestion,corrections of mistakes.
XFG uses configurations files to perform formating and insertion of TeX tag into the editor.
For the time being,they are very simple.They can be edited for your more advance LaTeX work.
The directory location of these files are in " /opt/redstone/mainlib/resource "
If you edit these files,please save your configurations into
" [your home directory]/redstone/resource " with exactly the same filename.
XFG will try to search in your home directory for configuration file first,if not found
,then search in XFG base directory.
/opt/redstone/mainlib/resource/XFGMemoInsertTeXFormat = For formating editor text /selection into TeX
/opt/redstone/mainlib/resource/XFGMemoInsertTeXFormatScan = Use by XFGMemoInsertTeXFormat to scan for illegal characters
/opt/redstone/mainlib/resource/XFGMemoInsertTeXTag = For insertion of TeX tags use by the menuitems
/opt/redstone/mainlib/resource/XFGMemoInsertTeXLeftFlowPictureTag = TeX for left side text flow picture
/opt/redstone/mainlib/resource/XFGMemoInsertTeXCenterPictureTag = TeX for insertion of picture
/opt/redstone/mainlib/resource/XFGMemoInsertTeXRightFlowPictureTag = TeX for right side text flow picture
The file XFGMemoInsertTeXTag really works together with xfg.conf (the main XFG configuration)
When you click on an menuitem,xfg.conf will search for reactions from XFGMemoInsertTeXTag to insert
the LaTeX tag into the editor.
XFG parameter values are enclosed between %xxxxx%
They can be replaced but not those that start with %XFGMemoInsert... , %PROC%...
The response of XFG if required values not found are undefined.

step 1.Make sure the " File list " checkbox is unchecked.
Double-clicked on a text file from the filemanager.This will open the
text file onto the editor.
step 2.Click on the editor's popup-menuitem " Insert --> LaTeX page format "
There will be three dialog box showing the LaTeX page formating options.
Click OK for the first and second options dialog.
For the third options dialog,choose " \\ " with the " Add line break to end of every lines "
combo box.The text on the editor will be formatted into LaTeX.For this example,we don't
have to do any LaTeX editing on the formatted text.
step 3.Go to the filemanager,open or create the desired directory where you want the formatted
LaTeX file to be saved to.From the editor,save the LaTeX formatted text.The file will be
saved with the filename of " xxx.tex ".
From now on,we will work on the choosen directory,which is the currently focused directly
pane in the filemanager.LaTeX need to have all the needed files in a known location.
step 4.From the editor,make sure the " File list " checkbox is checked.
Create a new memo tab page by clicking on the " New page " speed-button.
Double-clicked on a saved LaTeX file from the filemanager.This will output just the
saved LaTeX filename with full path onto the editor.
step 5.From the main menu,click on " Page tools ---> Convert LaTeX files to DVI "
The menu command will run " latex " on the choosen TeX files and save the processed
file into " xxx.dvi " along with some other file needed by " latex " for further
advance processing.
step 6.Go to the filemanager and select the DVI file and open it with xdvi with the
filemanager's popup menuitem " View DVI "
note : If you can find those TeX or DVI files which are supposed to be there,
click on the " Refresh " button on top of the filemanager.
step 7.Now we have two tab memo pages on the editor and the filename of the LaTeX together
with full path is on the second one,without doing anything,go to step 1 of the
next section below " Creating Postscript with LaTeX using XFG "
1.9.3.b.Creating Postscript
.
step 1.From the editor,make sure the " File list " checkbox is checked.
Create a new memo tab page by clicking on the " New page " speed-button.
From the filemanager double-clicked on the DVI file that we had just created.
This will output just the DVI filename with full path onto the editor.
step 2.From the main menu,click on " Page tools ---> Convert DVI to Postscript "
The menu command will run " dvips " on the choosen DVI files and save the processed
file into " xxxnew.ps ".
step 3.Go to the filemanager and select the Postscript file and open it with the
filemanager's popup menuitem " View PS "
note : If you can find those TeX or DVI files which are supposed to be there,
click on the " Refresh " button on top of the filemanager.
step 4.Now we have three tab memo pages on the editor,go to step 1 of the
next section below " Creating PDF with links and thumbnails "
1.9.3.c.Creating PDF with links and thumbnails
step 1.From the editor,make sure the " File list " checkbox is checked.
Choose the tab memo page which shows only the filename of the LaTeX
file.
step 2.From the main menu,click on " Page tools ---> Convert LaTeX files to PDF (pdfTeX) "
The menu command will run " pdftex " on the choosen LaTeX files and save the LaTeX
file into " xxx.pdf ".
note 1. : If you can find those TeX or DVI files which are supposed to be there,
click on the " Refresh " button on top of the filemanager.
step 3.Go to the filemanager and select the Postscript file and open it with the
filemanager's popup menuitem " Open others... ---> View PDF with Acroread "
note 2. : If you want a pdf file with hyper links,you need edit the LaTeX file with
TOC (table of content) for TeX sectionings,lists of figures,tables,indexing etc.
Some of the basic TOC,sectionings,indexing and lists of figures/picture are provided
with this software.You might need to run the main menu item
" Page tools ---> Make LaTeX index " to processed the LaTeX index.

The default file viewing program that comes with this program are
Jasspa's MicroEmacs ---> a very fast textfile viewer , http://www.jasspa.com/
gsview ---> a postscript and pdf viewer , http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/gsview/
dillo ---> a very fast web browser , http://freshmeat.net/projects/dillo/
imagemagick ---> an image browser , http://imagemagick.sourceforge.net/
Please read section 5 if you want to change these default settings.
These are those programs that MUST be installed before you can run FileGarden
netpnm ---> an image conversion utilities , http://netpbm.sourceforge.net/
imagemagick ---> an image browser , http://imagemagick.sourceforge.net/
ghostscript ---> postscript and pdf worker , http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/doc/AFPL/
psnup,psbook,psselect ... ---> comes pre-install with most linux system
tar and zip ---> comes pre-install with most linux system
FileGarden relies heavily on these programs , without them FileGarden is not needed.Thanks to the
developers of these programs.The images use in this sofware are taken from RedHat Linux 9 distribution.
Read the configuration file and compare it to the program,s interface
You should be able to figure it out structure of the file :
~/redstone/FileGarden/xfg.conf --------------> for the main program
/opt/redstone/mainlib/resource/* --------------> scripts for external
commandline programs GUI
/opt/redstone/mainlib/resource/GUIDS --------------> unique IDs for scripts naming
note : try to be case-sensitive and neat with configurations
enscript must be installed to run the program and the
page setup dialog
To change defaults settings or add new file viewing programs:
Step 1. Open the file /your home directory/redstone/FileGarden/xfg.conf
Step 2. Search for the section :
[MenuViewWith]
View text file=me -u root $in &
View PS=gsview %in &
View PDF=gsview %in &
View HTML=dillo %in &
View Image=display %in &
View with Gimp=gimp $in &
View with XFig=xfig $in &
Step 3. To change to your favorites viewer
example : if your text viewer is abiword
replace View text file=me -u root $in &
with View text file=abiword $in &
Step 4. To add new file viewer
example : if you want to play sounds or cd music and your palyer is xmms
add new values : I want to play this music=xmms %in &
or Lets nuke the world=xmms %in &
under the same section [MenuViewWith]
note : be careful with the variables in this file
eg : $in,$out,%in,%out,!in,!out,%xxxx% ,%PROC%xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
wrong or missing variables can breaks everything,including your hardware!
The Doc Bench menu item is a container for storage of documents.
The menu item works by pointing itself to the directory location referenced
by in the configuration file " ~/redstone/FileGarden/xfg.conf ".It will show
all the files within that directory on the menu.You can view or execute the
file by directly clicking on the menu item.Output will either be onto the editor
or fork an external helper program.
Step 1
Below is the section inside the " ~/redstone/FileGarden/xfg.conf "
You must configure these sections to point to your documents directory.
XFG was package with the author's documents directory configuration.
