<para>
|

It is important to understand that the GEDCOM standard is poorly implemented --

virtually every genealogical software has its own "flavor" of GEDCOM. As we

learn about new flavor, the import/export filters can be created very quickly.
|

However, finding out about the unknown flavors requires user feedback.

Please feel free to inform us about any GEDCOM flavor not supported by &app;,

and we will do our best to support it!

Yes. Different people have different ideas of what a genealogical tree is.
|

Some think of it as a chart going from the distant ancestor and listing
|
||||
all his/her descendants and their families. Others think it should be a

chart going from the person back in time, listing the ancestors and their

families. Yet other people think of a table, text report, etc. </para>

&app; can produce any of the above, and many more different charts and

&app; can store web addresses and direct your browser to them. It can import
|
||||
data that you download from the Internet. It can export data that you could
|
||||
send over the Internet. &app; is familiar with the standard file formats
|
||||
widely used on the Internet (e.g. JPEG, PNG, and GIF images, MP3, OGG, and
|
||||
WAV sound files, QuickTime, MPEG, and AVI movie files, etc). Other than that,

there is little that a genealogical program can do with the Internet.

<varlistentry><term>Can I create custom reports/filters/whatever?</term>
|
||||
<listitem><para>
|
||||
Yes. There are many levels of customization. One is creating or modifying
|
||||
the templates used for the reports. This gives you some control over
|
||||
the fonts, colors, and some layout of the reports. You can also use &app;
|
||||
controls in the report dialogs to tell what contents should be used for a
|
||||
particular report. In addition to this, you have an ability to create your
|
||||
own filters -- this is useful in selecting people based on criteria set
|
||||
by you. You can combine these filters to create new, more complex filters.
|
||||
Finally, you have an option to create your own plugins. These may be new
|
||||
reports, research tools, import/export filters, etc. This assumes some
|
||||
knowledge of programming in Python.

The nice thing about the standards is that there never is a shortage of

them. &app; is tested to support the following flavors of GEDCOM:
|
||||
GEDCOM5.5, Brother's Keeper, Family Origins, Familty Tree Maker, Ftree,

GeneWeb, Legacy, Personal Ancestral File, Pro-Gen, Reunion, and

|

&app; has no hard limits on the size of a database that it can handle.
|
||||
Starting with this release, &app; no longer loads all data into memory,
|
||||
which allows it to work with much larger database than before.
|
||||
In reality, however, there are practical limits. The main limiting factors
|
||||
are the available memory on the system and the cache size used for BSDDB
|
||||
database access. With common memory sizes these days, &app; should have
|

no problem using databases with tens of thousands of people.

We have found that on a typical system, &app; tends to bog down after the

memory you have.

&app; keeps a flag in the GNOME configuration database to indicate

the flag needs to be reset. This can be done with the following

the gnome-print backend, which supports PS and PDF creation,

The easiest way to contribute to reports, filters, tools, etc. is to copy

an existing &app; report, filter, or tool. If you can create what you want

by modifying existing code -- great! If your idea does not fit into the logic

of any existing &app; tool, the <ulink

Yes. There are many levels of customization. One is creating

you some control over the fonts, colors, and some layout of

the reports. You can also use &app; controls in the report

dialogs to tell what contents should be used for a

particular report. In addition to this, you have an ability

to create your own filters -- this is useful in selecting

people based on criteria set by you. You can combine these

filters to create new, more complex filters. Finally, you

have an option to create your own plugins. These may be new

reports, research tools, import/export filters, etc. This

the available memory on the system and the cache size used

It is obvious that &app; absolutely needs to become a
|
||||
(client-server/web-based/PHP/weblog/Javascript/C++/distributed/KDE/Motif/Tcl/Win32/C#/You-name-it)
|
||||
application. When is this going to happen?

</term>
|
||||
<listitem>
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
The surest way to see it happen is to get it done by
|
||||
yourself. Since &app; is free/open source, nobody prevents
|
||||
you from taking all of the code and continuing its
|
||||
development in whatever direction you see fit. In doing so,
|
||||
you may consider giving your new project another name to
|
||||
avoid confusion with the continuing &app; development. If
|
||||
you would like the &app; project to provide advice,
|
||||
expertise, filters, etc., we will gladly cooperate with your
|
||||
new project, to ensure compatibility or import/export
|
||||
options to your new format of a project.
|
||||
</para>
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
If, however, you would like the &app; project to to adopt
|
||||
your strategy, you would need to convince &app; developers
|
||||
that your strategy is good for &app; and superior to the
|
||||
present development strategy.

<para> &app; is a genealogical

Genealogical Research and Analysis Management Programming System. To put

it shortly, it allows you to store, edit, and research genealogical data
|

using your computer. Its functionality is somewhat common to other

genealogical programs. However, &app; offers some unique features. </para>

&app; is a free software package designed to help you with

genealogical research. It allows you to store, edit, and research

genealogical data using your computer. &app; is an open source
|
||||
software package, which means you are free to run it on any number
|
||||
of computers, examine the code, make changes, and redistribute as
|
||||
many copies as you like. It is developed and maintained by a
|

worldwide team of volunteers and is available at no cost from the

project web site and from many software distributions

|

<title>Why GRAMPS?</title>
|
||||
<para> &app; was conceived under the concept
|
||||
that most genealogy programs were designed to provide the researcher the
|
||||
capability to input information related to a particular family tree.
|
||||
Most of these programs have allowed for the arranging and storing of
|
||||
information consistent with the GEDCOM standards. They usually provide
|
||||
means for displaying descendant or ancestral relationships by means of
|
||||
graphical displays, charts, or reports. These may be augmented with
|
||||
pictures or other media to enhance the data. Most provide for inputting
|
||||
data on unconnected individuals/families that may or may not have a
|
||||
relationship to the primary surname being researched. Various other
|
||||
enhancements may also be provided in the genealogical program that
|
||||
allows for different degrees of importing and exporting data from other
|
||||
programs and printing the data contained in the various reports. </para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para> &app;, on the other hand, attempts to
|
||||
provide all of the common capabilities of these programs, but, more
|
||||
importantly, to provide an additional capability of integration not common
|
||||
to these programs. This is the ability to input any bits and pieces of
|
||||
information directly into &app; and
|
||||
rearrange/manipulate any/all data events in the entire data base (in any
|
||||
order or sequence) to assist the user in doing research, analysis and
|
||||
correlation with the potential of filling relationship gaps. In short, it
|
||||
is a tool that provides a way to input all your research into one place and
|
||||
do your analysis and correlation using the speed, power, and accuracy of
|
||||
your computer instead of pencils and unmanageable reams of paper. </para>
|
||||
<title>Why use GRAMPS?</title>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
|
||||
Most genealogy programs allow the researcher to input
|
||||
information related to a family tree. They can usually display
|
||||
descendant or ancestral relationships through graphical
|
||||
displays, charts, or reports. Some allow pictures or other media
|
||||
to be inserted to enhance the raw data. Most provide a means to
|
||||
include data on individuals or families that may or may not be
|
||||
related to the primary family being researched. And they may
|
||||
include other features such as exporting or importing to and
|
||||
from other programs and printing data contained in various
|
||||
reports.
|
||||
|
||||
</para><para>
|
||||
|
||||
&app; has all these capabilities and more. Notably, it allows
|
||||
you to integrate bits and pieces of stray data as the arise from
|
||||
your research and put all this information in one place - your
|
||||
computer. You can then use the speed, power, and accuracy of
|
||||
your computer to store, manipulate, correlate, and analyze your
|
||||
data, rather than messing with reams of paper.
|
||||
|
||||
</para><para>
|
||||
|
||||
&app; has the power to let you rearrange your data in any order
|
||||
or sequence and to help you fill gaps in genealogical
|

relationships.

Along with the BSDDB backend, the in-memory database handling for &app; XML and
|
||||
GEDCOM formats has been added. Simply put, it is now possible to natively open data
|
||||
in those two formats (although the preferred and default format is grdb) and work with
|
||||
that data, without necessarily setting up an empty database and then importing into it.
|
||||
This approach requires holding all data in memory, so it is only useful for small databases
|
||||
(depending on the available memory size). In such mode, the data is automatically
|
||||
saved upon exit, to mimic the functionality of the real database.
