Comment 54 for bug 187290

Weird - using Firefox 3.0b4 and every other patch file I've seen will open normally in it, but yours had no LF or CR, just one continual stream of text. But save as works fine. Actually, looking at the post, the attachment shows as "E:\ink\win32.046.quote.patch (3.2 KiB, text/html) ", where others are text/plain. Don't know why...Perhaps it's the < and > characters that got interpreted as html that the rest of that section is commented out to the browser.

I had figured out the build.xml stuff, and got it copying across as but it didn't stop the command window popping up during python operations, so I looked back at Adib's patch here - https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/187290/comments/13

Since you said his patch was lost, I tried to work off comment 13, and the build.xml stuff was only a small part of the earlier patch, so when I got a conflict I thought we would have to work through the conflict before trying the build.xml stuff.

Getting rid of the brief (>1sec) popup of a window is not the most important issue anyway. The real issue of paths has been sorted.

Any other thoughts? Otherwise we should commit this. I think this is the last issue that needs to be marked "Fix Released" before we can do a release.
