pencil: Revision 2
> "Pencil"<http://www.les-stooges.org/pascal/pencil/> is an animation/drawing software for Mac OS X and Windows. It lets you create traditional hand-drawn animation (cartoon) using both bitmap and vector graphics. Pencil is free and open source.
I wanted to run it under Linux (without "wine"<http://winehq.org>) so I tried to compile: ^ Get mac version of source .pre wget http://www.les-stooges.org/pascal/pencil/contents/Download/pencil-0.4.2b-mac-src.tgz tar xvfz pencil-0.4.2b-mac-src.tgz cd pencil-0.4.2b-mac-src .pre ^ Use local version of ming library Edit `pencil.pro` and change `LIBS` to: .pre LIBS += -lming .pre and remove binary verison of `libming.a` with: .pre rm lib/libming.a .pre You will also have to comment out one line in `src/interface/editor.cpp` .pre updateMaxFrame(); // object->exportMovie(1, maxFrame, view, exportSize, filePath, fps); return true; .pre ^ Build it Create `Makefile` and build project: .pre qmake-qt4 make .pre ^ Related After compiling it, I went to Google and searched for `exportMovie` (it's easy once you *know* what to do :-) and found "following blog post"<http://www.blendernation.com/2007/06/03/pencil-2d-animation-software/> which had reference to same fix for compilation (I didn't need `-lungif` to make it work) |
