[Gnumed-devel] Ok - I'm up and running - project needed.

[Richard Terry]

Ok, thanks Karsten, syan for all  your help.
In the event it was simple.

1) New cvs download
2) Karsten fixing a few typo's in his code
3) removing old /usr/share/gnumed directory from Ians 0.1.gz installation file 
and all works well.

Now that its running I'd like a bit of a simple project - I think getting the 
guidelines section working properly (using Au Therapeutic Guidelines). Some 
time ago Ken Havery from TGC did give us some sort of permission to use part 
of this for demonstration purposes, so I've contact him (away) leaving 
message to ring me to get the permissions sorted out again.

I've had a quick look at the overall progress/gui, and whilst realising all 
the progress has been on the back end - my god the gui and functionality is a 
dog's breakfast. One gets vertigo just trying to use what little there is of 
it. Even just the bootup screen/configuration sucks as to do anything simple 
with it takes many mouse clicks tabs etc. The whole idea of program flow 
should be to reduce the amount of work (mouse clicks, screen distrance 
tranversed, tab clicks etc) to a minimum.

I wish somewhere in your hearts you could put some trust in my abilities to 
make things functional and just, even for a period of say two months, follow 
my instructions blindly regarding the gui,  and just do what I say to improve 
the look of the gui and its functionality. I can guarentee you will not be 
disappointed.  Note that I follow your instructions/work re the backend and 
coding blindly without questioning your better judgement and skill.

Whereas as you know I don't have the coding abilities you guys do, I am bloody 
good at functionality/program flow/ gui, as witnessnessed by my own program 
(and anyone who has used it e.g Ian can testify to that), well documented in 
the copious quantities of documents I've provided.

I will start firing a few questions off about the html stuff and the 
quidelines page of the next couple of weeks.

Also karsten BTW, what happened to all the clinical editing areas - there are 
none at all in my version of gnuMed.

Comments (don't mean to start a flame ware) welcome.
