-------------------------------------
I made this educative software as a part of my thesis when I graduated from highschool.
I wanted to help people gain knowledge about fysical and mathematical statements in a way that it is fun to do. The theory is explained and it is possible to make exercices.
I aim to make a nice program that can be used in schools and at home.
-----------------------------------
All comments are welcome!!!
Everybody who has some new ideas conserning this project may send me an e-mail. All help is welcome!! (translations, more exercices, new programs, ideas, ...) [email protected]
------------------------------------
The program consists out of 4 programs: ARCHIMEDES, OPTICS, DUBBLARATES and EXTREMA PROBLEMS (minamum and maximum)
-----------------------------------

You should try to make it like this: klik://edukator

But I think about EduKator more as a concept to learn stuff.
First you see an animation or so, then you can change some stuff and see what it does, after that one can study the theory and make some exercices.
EduKator can host lingual-stuff too. Or things about history in the future...
But then the application will need to be re-designed a bit, I think....
So if anyone has some suggestions...please let me know
cheers

KDE is coming the preferred educational desktop for my little area. The more people see Gnu Linux and KDE, the more the opt for it.
Its work like this that makes it all possible.
Well done you,

Klik really is a nice tool.
btw:I have read that making klik packages isn't even that difficult.
The klik database is really BIG by the way those who don't know KLIK yet, might wanna check it out.

When EduKator isn't available in your language it should choose english.
I havn't been able to test this propper. So can you all let me know if it works or does not work please.
EduKator supports: English, Dutch, French, Russian, Spanish (only menu's at the moment)
Thanks a lot

It really encourages me to go on and make something really nice of eduKator.
I will think about what you proposed.
I will probably conact people from the edutainment project in a few weeks (months?), when eduKator has evolved a little bit more.
When you have any suggestions, just add a comment or send me an email. This is my very first application developed in QT/KDE.(I am still learning it)
bye,

Furthermore, you have an install script but no uninstall. Make allows make uninstall.
Also I downloaded the english source to find the menus in Dutch! And when I choose an item in the menu on the most left the app segfaulted (maybe because I ran it from the bin src as I don't want to install it in /usr)

Maybe you can tell me how I should do it?
The programm originally was created in dutch, that's why the source-code of the english version is also in dutch.
I just made a translation file with QT linguist.
If you don't understand my code because of the dutch, just mail me you question, I will translate the code you need willingly.
Thanks for you comment.

make: *** No rule to make target `/usr/mkspecs/default/qmake.conf', needed by `Makefile'. Stop.
Why is there no configure script? It seems that the way the Makefile is done is too restrictive and does not allow any custom configuration.

I had the same problem once.
I just did:
export QTDIR=/usr/lib/qt3/
(the path to qt-lib)
after doing this
[[email protected] /]$ ll $QTDIR/mkspecs/default/qmake.conf
should give you this output:
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 2341 sep 8 20:29 /usr/lib/qt3//mkspecs/default/qmake.conf
[[email protected] /]$

btw: I don't know how to make a configure file :-(

I suggest you use KDevelop, create a KDE template and then improt your files in it. That way you will have it all.
Looking in your Makefile you have:
INCPATH = -I/usr/mkspecs/default -I. -I$(QTDIR)/include
[email protected]:~/eindwerk_v4_english$ echo $QTDIR
/usr/local/kde3.3/qt-copy
[email protected]:~/eindwerk_v4_english$ make
make: *** No rule to make target `/usr/mkspecs/default/qmake.conf', needed by `Makefile'. Stop.
