No link from AlleyCAT to Plover, couldn't find the plugin. #1

Open flamenco108 opened 2 years ago

flamenco108 commented 2 years ago

I don't know if it should be posted here: Just after I read (17th Aug 2022) the news on Mirabai's Opensteno blog, immediately I had downloaded the newest/latest Plover and AlleyCAT to my Xubuntu Linux szmirlap 5.15.0-46-generic #49~20.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Thu Aug 4 19:15:44 UTC 2022 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux. I started Plover, then AlleyCAT. Could not find in Plugin's Manager the plugin for AlleyCAT (nothing like alleycat-link). Plover works great. AlleyCAT works great. But they don't work together. I'm not a programmer, just a user.

I've already added the AlleyCAT Link plugin to the registry. It requires Plover 4.0.0-dev10+ and Python 3.7+, if that makes a difference. And it's just called alleycat-link, so it should show up at the very top of the list of plugins.

Below the printscreen from my Linux, list of plugins etc. if it might help. 2022-08-20-plover-alleycat Thanks in advance for help! :)

Yes, EXCITING, so THANK YOU, SAMMDOT. Your project has such potential, but where's the plug-in to provide the link between Plover and AlleyCAT?

I would really like to know, how @Codebreakerblue had installed it properly, so he/she has a link to Plover. I did also pip install alleycat-link on my Linux and on Windows, but result is still the same. Below parameters on Linux:

flamenco@szmirlap:~$ bin/Plover/plover-4.0.0.dev12-x86_64.AppImage --version
Plover 4.0.0.dev12
flamenco@szmirlap:~$ python3 --version
Python 3.8.10
flamenco@szmirlap:~$ python --version
Python 2.7.18
flamenco@szmirlap:~$

On Windows:

C:\Users\flamenco>python --version
Python 3.10.6
C:\Users\flamenco>plover --version
Plover 4.0.0.dev12

Greetings, SAMMDOT. Thanks again for a long-awaited and potentially very useful plug-in app. Do you have any news for us about the link? I've tried everything I can, with no luck.

Salutations, SAMMDOT. I'm having the same issue as above. Plover 4.0.0.dev12. Python 3.11.0. Keenly interested in giving this a go. (Incidentally, I couldn't get the web version to work either. I could write in the text field, but nothing comes up in the steno notes.)
