A Ruleset Development Environment for Thousand Parsec game modes
================================================================

Requirements:
	Python 2.4
	wxPython 2.6.0
	pyscheme 1.6
		pyscheme can be obtained at:
		http://hkn.eecs.berkeley.edu/~dyoo/python/pyscheme/
		It can either be installed using the setup.py file or the contents of
			the src/ directory can be put into the directory:
			.../tpruledev/src/pyscheme
	elementtree 1.2.6 or compatible
		Python 2.5 comes with elementtree and so no other packages are required
		In the case of Python 2.4 then you should download and install one
		of the following packages:
		   elementtree - http://effbot.org/zone/element-index.htm
		   lxml - http://codespeak.net/lxml/

Running the app:
	In Windows:
		Browse to the .../tpruledev/src/ directory and double click on
		the file RDE.py 
	   or:  
		cd to the .../tpruledev/src/ directory and use the command
		`pythonw RDE.py`

	In Linux: 
		cd to the .../tpruledev/src/ directory and use the command
		`python RDE.py` 
	    or: cd to the .../tpruledev/src/ directory and executre RDE.py
	    	directly (./RDE.py when the file is executable)

Noteworthy files and directories:
	tpruledev/src/RDE.py 
		- The application runner, when executed on its own will start
		  the RDE 
	tpruledev/src/TpclEditor.py 
		- The TPCL Expression Editor stand-alone runner. Opens a TPCL Editor dialog
		  window. Most useful for testing and debugging purposes.
	tpruledev/src/WrapRDE.py 
		- A script to wrap the RDE in PyCrust for quickly testing
		  features and exploring the structure
	tpruledev/notes.txt 
		- Todo list and notes on the design and progress of the app
	tpruledev/MTSec/... 
		- An example project which is composed of Components and
		  Properties from the MTSec gametype.
	tpruledev/Minisec/... 
		- A completed project which contains working Components and
		  Properties for the Minisec gametype
	tpruledev/RFTS/... 
		- A sample project based off of the RFTS ruleset
