Re: [M100] Linux versions of access programs
Hello John, That would be a great contribution! VirtualT https://sourceforge.net/projects/virtualt/ And DLPlus http://bitchin100.com/wiki/index.php?title=DLPlus Are the main ones. Virtual T is the universal model t emulator and DLPlus is a C based tpdd disk drive emulator. LaddieAlpha is the main tpdd emulator I support but it’s a Mono .exe so it doesn’t really need a package since the binary is universal across OS’es and the only dependency is the mono runtime. — John.

Do you have pointers to Linux-based tools that are worthy of packaging? I'm not a huge Model 100 user, but I maintain Fedora packages for a number of CoCo-related tools, FWIW... John -- John W.

Re: [M100] Linux versions of access programs
The problem isn’t so much the compile as what packages are installed on your machine. Even if we release binaries that doesn’t mean it will run. What we really need is Debian and Redhat packages released and kept up to date. That would solve the problem since packages include metadata about dependencies. So then all you do is tell your package manager to install and it brings along everything you need I think we could do a better job of publishing how tos for each OS. Building and installing programs from source isn’t so hard once you know a 100% working recipe for your system. — John.

[M100] Linux versions of access programs
I would like to see uploads, to the Linux archives, of any programs that have had to be compiled for Linux. Several programmers have shared their work with Debian and Ubuntu. If that were done it is possible that these programs would be available to more people, and not just to programmer savy folks. I have been enjoying Linux Mint lately, and being able to access my Model T's would be excellent. Frederick Whitaker
