This application has been packaged as a [ruby gem]( Installationhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RubyGems#Gems): to install, simply type: ```ruby gem install yorkcmarker ``` Then, to run the application, simply type ```ruby yorkcmarker ``` at the command prompt.
Prerequisites
You will need a Ruby Interpreter installed. Ruby installers are available for Windows, Linux and Mac. Follow the instructions here: http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/downloads/ to install Ruby.
The gem has been developed and tested against ruby 1.9.3p194. It should work with earlier versions (>= 1.9.2), but it's recommended you use the same version (at the time of writing it's the latest).
You need to have the libgtk2.0-dev package installed - you can do this using: ```bash sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev ``` Thanks to Yuan for catching this! Ubuntu Distros
Simply fill in your name, and the student number, and then check the boxes the students have marks for. Multiple marks are awarded by checking multiple boxes for the appropriate statement. Usage
Pressing the Save button will save the details of the Part you are currently editing. Partial files are created in subdirectories (part_1 and part_2) of the output directory you select when asked. When both Parts have been completed for a student, full and summary marksheets are created in the output directory.
Each part can be marked individually - for example, you can mark Part 1, close the program, come back and mark Part 2 another time, and the program will then generate the completed marksheets. The data is sort in JSON form, in output directory/data.
Currently tested on:
Check with: ```ruby ruby -v ``` * ruby 1.9.3p194 * ruby 1.9.2-p290 Ruby versions
* Linux Mint 12 (see [_libgtk2.0-dev_]( Operating Systems:https://github.com/freefallertam/york-c-marking-assistant/edit/master/README.markdown#ubuntu-distros) requirement above) * Ubuntu (see [_libgtk2.0-dev_](https://github.com/freefallertam/york-c-marking-assistant/edit/master/README.markdown#ubuntu-distros) requirement above) * Microsoft Windows XP * Microsoft Window Vista
If you install and run the gem on any other setups, let me know and I'll add to the above list.

This code has just been thrown together - it grew from a CLI script written to save marking time. It's not clean, and it's not pretty, but is stable as far as it's been tested, and does the job. It does need a lot of refactoring and tidying up (this is on the TODO list!)! Developer notes - the current code..
more information for developers coming soon..
