Brevity Alpha 1 Released

http://www.brvty.org/alpha_1/

Go get it!

I almost feel like I should apologize here. While it’s pretty cool so far, in my mind it is still just a pale proof of concept to what I envision Brevity could become. But I’ve been talking it up so long, I figured I better put something out there for people to mess around with, and get some feedback, etc.

There’s a Windows executable package and a Python package, which should work just fine on a Mac. I also wrote up some quick documentation and a dozen or so sample files which I just tested on the PC and Mac, and they are all working fine for me. So now I sit back and cringe and wait for all the reports of how it doesn’t work on your machines… 🙂

Before you dive in, definitely read the documentation. There’s a config file in there where you have to set your paths to the compiler and player. If those are wrong, it’s not going to do much of anything.

We should also have an SVN repository up soon, courtesy of OS Flash, and there’s a mailing list (details at http://www.brvty.org). I would really, really, really appreciate keeping any feedback, problems, questions, etc. on the mailing list, rather than my personal email or blog.

Have fun. Looking forward to the feedback.
