[chirp_users] chirp_users Digest, Vol 104, Issue 3 ///BRIAN////

[Brian Dickman]

George,

We're always happy to have help, even if it just ends up being one
patch to solve the one problem you are having.

Lots of good steps here:

http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/Developers
http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/DevelopersWin32Environment

Chirp is written in Python. It's easy to learn and work with, plus for
making small changes you barely need to understand the language
anyway. Lots of tutorials on the web, like this one:
http://www.diveintopython.net/

Windows will be fine for development. Start with a code editor of your
choice (lots of folks default to notepad++ or Atom these days), and
get Mercurial:

https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/Download#Windows

Then follow the instructions on this wiki page:

http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/DevelopersProcess

Specifically, use the TortoiseHG tool to download ("clone") the chirp
repository from http://d-rats.com/hg/chirp.hg

Lots of other guidance on the wiki, and we'd be happy to help you
further on the developer mailing list.

73,
